Notes About The Poem

Who am I

the screen of awareness is still
we are that watching ego here
reflex instincts mind calls free will 
striving daily shrouded in fear

it does not suffice that we know
watching ebb and flow of life’s tides
in this lucid dream we just flow
where outcomes God alone decides

observed thus ego becomes shy 
so chooses to align with source
not a drifting cloud, it’s the sky
the bubble bursts sans use of force

we live this truth by day and night
from cravings of ego unchained 
with grace deepening our insight 
wisdom in us slowly ingrained

we know not why we don a form
the questioner does not exist
awash in currents cool and warm
there is no one here to resist 

soul wants to play in dreams awhile
in mood and mode embrace-release
love the touch never out of style
elixir that makes hearts unfreeze

outside space-time we are complete
just as we are here now on earth
living the truth as God’s heartbeat 
exuding joy bubbling with mirth

knowing we’re the eye of the eye
pulse prior to by which we see
the yearning that makes our heart sigh
presence is content to just be
