The Visit

The Visit


On the eve of a total solar eclipse
I was visited by I AM ALL THAT IS

The time was three in the morning
And I AM ALL THAT IS
Sat down beside me and told me a story

Now I AM ALL THAT IS is no fool
And did not visit me in HIS/HER/IT true form

The form taken was my Uncle Keith
A dear man who was very loving and kind
But who called himself slow

Uncle Keith moved to a new apartment in Florida
and was not happy about the new living arrangements


Uncle Keith asked me to help him because he did not know how to work 
his new cable tv

But that was just like Uncle Keith who thought that he could not do many things right

I asked him was he happy and he looked kinda of sad but I said that you need
to give yourself a little time to adjust to your new home

On the eve of a total solar eclipse
I was visited by I AM ALL THAT IS
Sat down beside me and told me a story

As I woke up on the day of the total eclipse
I AM ALL THAT IS
Left me a picture of HIS/HER/IT Self

To remind me of the story
But the picture that was left
was a picture of me
