Sacred Substance

I can feel that distant bond with spheric energy 
    that determines 
        my life proceed
            that I follow 
                 the currents
                     that stimulate significance
                         within my insignificant fragment 
                              of the larger. 

My senses 
plugged into an endlessly pregnant womb 
constantly conceiving new parallels 
between dreams and realities 

I grow with the pulse of purpose 
That tutors my hungry soul.

A bottomless vessel of nerves
absorbing the globe
lapping the cream of sentience 
and sipping static, 
to slake the sixth 
saturating it 
with lessons learned.

I absorb the sacred substance 
of limited time 

A chance

to experience an eternity of emotion 
and all the degrees between

the rapture at the highest peak of jubilation
       and the rapture at the lowest 
                 hollow of lament

because

to be human is to be spiritual.
