Unseeking Seeker

Metamorphose contest

Written 10/06/2025

 

being mistook we burnt the book

thoughts rest, we dwell in our heart’s nest

touched by spirit, our body shook

by God’s light blest as we undressed”


I am a droplet in the vast ocean of conscience,
a minuscule dust in the planet’s atmosphere,
an expression of eternity in its timeless expanse,
yet I am myself an universe and all of time where I stand,
truth is -in creation, a fraction of everything equals everything,
and everything can be compacted into a fraction,
a creature like many I was before I found that truth,
a package of flesh and bones, with a breath to thrive,
seeking the truth as I journeyed through humanity,
past the barriers of daily petty desires and wishes,
a family man, professional who sought earthly glory,
before tides of events opened my eyes to true reality,
and then the image of self began to dissolve like a glacier,
each day, moment by moment till I was no more,
now I am you and him and all of them,
I am the earth and the universe and all the galaxies,
yet in my brief person itself there is a whole universe,
made of millions of cells that live and die each day
without a name, once their roles fulfilled,
like I am doing for the universe that I am part of,
just as the universe is part of me.
I have now metamorphosed into everything that is
and that had ever been. 
Can I die? no. Never. I am entirety itself.
