Dear Arrogant Mind - Loosely Linked With Vedas

when certain voices speak something inside me pricks up unseen ears inviting the best of schizophrenia: mind, ego, body, the Deep we are a lot of trouble - our degrees, you, and me and the scientific way with the unknowable knowing nothing of that which dwells within WE yet when powerful suns glow and speak the uneducated part of me listens like a child again to voices back from India, familiarly sweet lulling this plastic shell with data and pixel to sleep so my own light - Deep, Deepak - is like Father Fire again while through windows stained, sons peek LISTEN! Listen intently ... imperceptibly gentle voices Singing of a once glorious Ganges, mighty Mississippi, magnificent Missouri How to sing when overcome by men and women's vices when Grandfather Spirit is hung from a totem pole for psuedo-science but the Data was always here, is here, will always be light and sound allow my atom to cross the silence (c)Deo, published and recyled since 2005.
