Poem
Through the piercing silence of the night Echoes the soul grasping sound Of the ethereal howling of a pack of wolves Their song is carried across the air Over the tree tops to a place of forever The full moon glows an aura of wonderment Wolves wail to this celestial body in honor of it Metaphorically, they are attempting to connect With ideas that lie dormant in the subconscious Just below the surface Like undisturbed stones that nestle comfortably In the sand upon the apex of a smooth flowing river Always there but obstructed from view What secrets reside within us Waiting to be discovered? For it is in sleep the unconscious whispers to us, Shall we lie quietly and listen? If you don’t cross the bridge You will never know what’s on the other side So, if we were not meant to eat There would be no hunger Therefore the subconscious must serve a purpose Who says that logic is the only reality? I have awakened, to feast my eyes Upon a gigantic sphinx Silently it observes me and smirks A sly, cunning smile masking Its many mysteries and knowledge What secrets will be revealed To me on this night if I listen? A vast bonfire blazes, and as it cackles The flames reach above to the star filled sky Surrounded by spectators, I see a fox, and a coyote As a glimmering golden hawk accompanied by A mystical red phoenix encircle the sight, uttering Words of wisdom, which spread over the ocean of Canyons creating an echo in which the mountains Respond in unison, surely there is a message here Each brilliant star suddenly transposes itself into lines Of letters, I gaze in awe at the wondrous words Glittering like silver beads stretching the expanse of The universe, all unfamiliar, yet tantalizing, languages From ages ago, no longer spoken, however readily co-existing Along side modern speech and thought, what may I learn If I were to study these ancient gems of communication? Therefore, I am ready to fly with the essence of the night Begin a quest into another realm Of human awareness Seeking out words and ideas To bring back For it is here that thoughts originate A journey into the other side of myself Where logic has no relevance And imagination has no limitations As the pirate who prepares to unearth A buried treasure Okay kill the lights Close your eyes Prepare for take-off
