Beyond the Family Within
Immanent is the kernel of consciousness
embedded within every living thing
no matter how big or small is the creature.
It is this spooky common disconnectedness
that allows the spark of entanglement
to trigger an emotional response
to and fro from all living things.
It is from the within of all things
interconnected, that the transcendent spirit begins
to grow beyond the sum of the parts via an evolving inheritance.
Transcendental immanency is the whisper of leaves in the breeze
It is the murmur of waves lapping in the seas,
It is the eyes matching-making with glints that please
It is the warmth of shared smile that both emulators sees
It is entanglement, the spooky spiritual links that appease,
join, bind and interconnect all living things
into a family within, immanent and transcendent.
Essences of my Goals
Much I the splendid aspiration
I discovered the dreams decision making
the matter-of-fact mission minding
and the immanence so unwinding
Only this and an immanency
In their stepped a silent 'deracination'?
Justice and only heaven knows
The truest essences of my goals
