Notes About The Poem

Soul Sojourn

Soul eternal Inserted in a body In a reflected universe A lucid dream seeming real An individuated divine essence Is immersed with memory erased Limited in enablement and knowledge With the subject immersed within object Granting the earth interface seeming free will Then observing how it flounders about in darkness Bemused by illusions manifest by power of supreme mind Flitting from desire to desire and battling dark fears Believing itself to be doer of its limited actions Until one day the entity becomes exhausted Finally surrendering his will to God within Choosing cessation and staid silence Thus negating fears and desires Becoming an empty vessel Receptive to the current Which then fills form With ecstatic bliss 21-September-2021
