idle musings

we are here but wish to be elsewhere
not in space but in orientation
as presence self-aware
vibrant in the void of cessation

what we seek is in timeless time received
though intent takes time to crystallise
so with wayward ego aggrieved 
we resist magnetism that seeks to rise

we wished to know the truth so were shown
eternal light beyond space and time
but one with oneness we are alone
whilst on earth we dance to bliss beat’s chime

the flavour of our muse we ourselves choose
but descent does involve separation
so oh hermit let love ooze
that each breath intake is a celebration
