On Off On

On Off On An entity performs a ballet in our bodies millisecond by millisecond keeping rhythm with symmetry mid the ethereal and material its footfalls run No doctrine can lead you to it no philosophies no maps no directions no signs only the loving spontaneity of this intuitive dancer following the music as it slips in and out of fiber and aura The focus is everywhere and the dance floor has no end just the polished surface of infinity in which if you care to look you will see your own reflection

... watching a science program about atoms Sue.. when they said.. "all atoms are continually blinking in and out of existence, one minute they exist and the next they don't" except it happens in fractions of milliseconds sorts of minutes.... and this image just blew me away... and then I could see this whole rhythm to it, like breathing in and out, and pulsars, and the breath of Brahma, and existence and death, and life... and where do they bloody well go when they are not on but off ?????????

Colin this is following he music with its mysterious hold on us bringing out rythum and gyrations that we oose ouselves in the music. Your talent shines in this one. I can recall that endless floor and being controlled by that being that you write about inside brought out by the beat and melody in me. Itcaptivates you and takes control. Very nicewrite Michael
