Joseph P. DiMino Poet Free verse

The Divine of Me, Or a Divine Riddle

The Divine of me
knows me better than
self – therefore, when 
I am selfless I seem
closer to the Divine...but not 
truly far from self...for we are
part-and-parcel, sharing
the same spirit, substance
of all matter; it is the matter
when looking out or
looking in – the eyes of
man in God...or the eyes
of God in man….

Gershon Wolf July 23, 2020 at 6:38 PM Profound penning, my friend... Where the outside looking in and the inside looking out come together!... Could be a 'Buddha' moment. ~ H. Hesse Joseph P. DiMino July 23, 2020 at 9:33 PM Thank you Gershon. Personally, unlike Nirvana (the elimination of personal consciousness) I strive for ever greater individuality, consciousness oneness with God.... From the lesser to higher self. Obviously, I am nowhere near there yet:) Have a great day my friend!
