The Monk Windows, Ravens, Angels and Embryos Forming

“The Monk Windows, Ravens, Angels and Embryos Forming” Dawn arrives in the black and white misunderstood in the abstract you can see the embryos of thought forming always inside us the children white angel wings cover sleeping pages where raven wings spread like evensong in storm clouds cutting through the dissolving glass lighter things are never as they appear like windows forming where black monks stand commanding their understanding and the ghosts of the future call the fallen years back in holding court staring back with their vacant hollow faces waiting for some repetitive tiring confession from the yawning windows before their irreverent blessing you listen for the sound that follows the lightening but all you hear is the loud beating of your heart falling through the soul’s hourglass it’s over-percolated dripping lighter things are never as they appear like windows forming where black monks stand commanding their understanding Dawn arrives in the black and white misunderstood in the abstract you can see the embryos of thought forming always inside us the children the message sealed for breaking through the glass house and its never-ending ceilings (LadyLabyrinth / 2022) gvlm “Window” / HVOB https://youtu.be/rDNGrBY512w

"When someone is broken, don't try to fix them (you can't). Show them instead, how the cracks in their armour let the light shine through.That's how it gets in. When someone is grieving, don't attempt to fill the hole in their heart (you can't). Instead, remind them that the love they had for that person, must live on within them. It is infinite.

When someone is hurting, don't try to heal their pain (you can't). Remind them instead, how laughter, love and sunshine mend the spirit. The medicine we need is inside us already, dig for it.

When someone is too sad, for this busy, crazy life, don't try to turn their sadness around (you can't). Just show up, sit with them and let them know they are accepted no matter what (you can). Do not 'correct them'. Be subtle. Sometimes that is all we need."

Never correct them. "The medicine we need is inside us already, dig for it." Even if it is deep within our own grave. ;)

It's just a poem Schmidt, a bit of creative writing. I wouldn't get too philosophical about it. I like the abstract art in the video. Abstract, not simple. Complex, just like life. Thank you for stopping by. Regards, Weaving Baskets.
