Screen of Awareness

these events and thoughts pass all over me, like insects on a fluorescent screen, a glitter, a moment, flicker of time, a lifetime to travel in social slime! memories are made, memories erased, on the brain slate of nerves, bemused and dazed, writer is unseen, the chalk doesn’t screech, my story unfolds and fate? out of reach! many voices come through, somewhere from dark, no faces to see, no glimmer, no spark, my eyes are shut but my mind is awake, soul records my spiritual uptake! I am but a blank white sheet on time’s book, million pages may not get a second look, I am imprinted with what hand writes on me, what generations may read, I let be! a world of illusions, world of untruths, from our birth to old age through erring youth, in this ignorance is silent wisdom, seeking eternal truth, yearning freedom!
