FULL BLOWN A'GOIN, GOING, GOIN, GONE  AGAIN (11-6-15, Cathedral City ('Cove'), California)

 
 
i used to  
     be full blown  
a goin  going  
     goin  
til almost  
     nearly gone  
torn and  
     swept away  
from living  
     in this world  
but now im  
     just a blowin  
blowing  blowin  
     blown  
far from there  
     back then  
beyond  
     to here now  
yet again    
     alive amid  
the living  
     like an ever  
flowin wind  
     flowing  
flowin  flown  
     through this  
masked illusions  
     ongoing  
dying song  
     ongoin
ongoing  ongoin  
     just keeps on
going on
     yet still somehow  
feels even  
     further lost  
here now  
     within    
without    
     herein  
this homeless  
     home  
so changed  
     regressively  
devolved  
     yet despite  
my great  
     displacement  
from this  
     temporal  
scheme  
     of things  
here in this  
     temporal  
world  
     at least  
in seeing  
     far beyond  
its dying  
     blinding veil  
i can quietly  
     co exist  
transcend  
     its pain and  
loneliness  
     and in my  
deeper  
     knowings truth  
still bring  
     myself  
to smile  
     out of wonder  
at its epic  
     cosmic struggle  
to ultimately  
     either awaken  
or succumb  
     back to the  
land of  
     death
and darkness
     or back  
to vibrant  
     life and sun  
where in fact  
     i already am  
sitting here  
     writing  
this poem  
     from  
now
