The Inexpressible
THE INEXPRESSIBLE…
Vocabulary passes into oblivious dissolution,
And embankment of expression
Awaits the fragile knocks of fear,
Wholeness circumscribed the lonely emptiness
And the subdued self desires to draw
The figure of its universe
In the shrinking shell of consciousness.
Self’s unceasing preparedness
To stretch the arms of tiring limits
Into the unending horizon
And pluck the infinite’s blossom
To treasure in the finite’s tranquil corner.
Rigidity’s readiness to melt
And softness’s eagerness
To acquire the subtler version,
At the warmth’s tender touch
Alluring the champion of establishment
Into an inebriated exuberance.
Heart’s risky plunge into voiceless depths,
Motionless its march,
Inexplicable its unheard oratory,
Adventures into crucified crux-
Seeking the immortal enchantress
In the diffused darkness and densest ignorance.
Breath’s ultimate competition-
To kiss the zone of silence.
Smiting life’s breast
With rosy lips of death’s beauty.
And the defeated twilight succumbs
Before the advancing darkness.
Not for the annihilation in
The veil less vast void,
But to embrace the stealthy unfoldment
Of “Divine Bliss”-enwrapped in the
Petals of the approaching dawn..
