Ascending Epiphany

I realize limitation Is an illusion. My destiny is without Boundary. Looking, Beyond death. Beyond the periphery Eternal Incarceration Cosmic chaos is cooking... Infinite combinations In infinite situations Attuned yet unaware, A universe of oppositions Frequency and energy Space, matter A spiraling dichotomy. an ascending epiphany. 11-27-14 PLEASE COMMENT!!

Joel, This poem effectively and convincingly captures the boundlessness of humankind in the context of the universe. It is a declaration of hope and of possibilities. All of which is to say that I think it's first rate. I wish I had written it.

This is deeply thought provoking, it makes one ponder inner divinity, are we not a collection of memories carried onward maybe from life to the next life, in other wards retained memory, I've offen thought about this myself and wrote about it two. I often have done things totally new but I'm good at it like i've done it before. How about you? Is this good input for you cheri lol by the way thanks also for your comment.

Very thoughtful and much appreciated feedback Cherl.. Thank you so much for reading and commenting.. I am not dismissive of this notion.. A favorite song of mine by"The Faceless" "Vibrations pulsate A molecular fate Biology becoming indeterminably intertwined With it's own accelerated evolution We forge We're growing Biology becoming indeterminably intertwined With a universe propelled in a turbulent design A framework overflowing with life In another step of evolution Humanity moving beyond mortality Endless sensation revealed in a spectrum of light Phenomenon breathes to pull forth infinity Restructured elemental design"
