You'Re It, the Secret
"You’re It, The Secret"
Inside you
a whole new world
Outside
You … exist
Outside
the game is ‘resist’
such an anxious world
the questions forever
pressing on
You
wanting answers
your gardens soiled and turned
new seeds for blooming
planted
your muddied waters
become in your mind
a luke-warm
conundrum
discovered clear
through the Consomme
Inside breathes
freedom
I Am
holds it all
seen by few
seen by some
a true gift
in open hands
a bridge for you to walk
without fear,
firm ...
you make your stand
"Just" -
as in music
the heart
lifts...
in You,
eventually
Evanescence
the mirage disappears
opening a door
to a new, strange land
whenever you meet
a Ghost, don't run away
Walk straight through
the Ghost
and it will
disappear
before you there remains
the true path
It exists
and
It is very clear
(LadyLabyrinth / 2020)

"No one is more dangerously insane
than one who is sane all the time:
he is like a steel bridge without flexibility,
and the order of his life is rigid and brittle."
“Advice? I don’t have advice.
Stop aspiring and start writing.
If you’re writing, you’re a writer.
Write like you’re a goddamn death row inmate
and the governor is out of the country
and there’s no chance for a pardon.
Write like you’re clinging to the edge of a cliff,
white knuckles, on your last breath,
and you’ve got just one last thing to say,
like you’re a bird flying over us
and you can see everything, and please,
for God’s sake, tell us something
that will save us from ourselves.
Take a deep breath
and tell us your deepest, darkest secret,
so we can wipe our brow and know that we’re not alone.
Write like you have a message from the king. Or don’t.
Who knows, maybe you’re one of the lucky ones
who doesn’t have to.”
Alan Watts

"At the end, the final chapter, the last thought is of LOVE. It is only of Love, and all its guises, its faces we have faced and walked away from, and that we must face again... to do a full circle, to move forward to the entry gate. Without Love, the key will not turn the door to the dream, that we all push aside. Love is the "token" one must offer to move through...that door."
