Depth


That August was a strange time,
(Madness into sadness – Sadness into madness.)
People from that time are no longer alive.

Someone told me that

Regret
Is the worst of things,

A source
Of the deepest sufferings,

Perhaps...

I was -
I suppose,

Stark in the dark of the
Middle
Of nowhere:

Somewhere there.

O

The darkness of those nights
Became heights,

The calling of falling,

With no distinction
Between
Nothing and anything,

There in

My chamber
Of sensory deprivation,

& Then

I heard the rain – Reign
In a song of purification,

& Then

I disrobed – Unclothed
My body,

Down to my soul,

Needing purity -
Needing to be whole.

Farm grass at the sole
Of my foot steps,

Disarmed – Open armed

Into

Crystalline rain, darkness

&

Depth.
