I Saw God But Now What


In the archaic anchorage 
of the wayward mind, 
isolated from the righteous roots 
of transcendental inviolability
by the dislodging drive 
of the deriding desires,
untamed instincts shroud 
the entranced senses in disdain abyss.

Under the surface of sensual subterfuge  
of corporeal discernment,
the tapered thoughts transitorily profile
on the ephemeral screen, 
the shifting shape of intrinsic images  
of sprouting awareness 
within the unique quintessence of divinity.

The ill-conceived venture 
of the errant mind 
finds the gloomy dead end 
in the introspection path,
that’s when I see the door 
of the inner sanctum open,
where the lotus blooms 
with the omnipresent aurora of God,  
flood my possessed essence 
for an evanescent moment 
when the soul shines with astral brilliance
of thousand suns 
within my deep spiritual space
with the timeless intrepid radiance 
of sequined devotion. 
  
The stimulant inner portals, 
letting in the enlightenment vista
with the motivation sunshine 
of impetuous actuality, 
exudes the impulsive impression 
of my awakened psyche,
enhances the defining strength 
of the cathartic spirit,
I don’t want to lose.

As the immanent timorous emotions 
unfurl in the space of spontaneity,
the soul contained latent so long
in the cauldron of vacuity, 
finds freedom in heavenly inspiration, 
as I try to assimilate in piety 
what suffuses the consciousness layers 
with the divine aura of bliss 
in the realm of the absolute supreme. 

“Yes, I affirm, I have seen God
But He appeared and then disappeared
This knowing that transcends mind, left me awed
But until what’s imbibed is assimilated, by fears I’m seared”.
