Dream scape

I tied myself in knots

Caught in a maelstrom of clumsy thoughts

The headlines of other people’s ideas

merging with the unwieldy grammar of my oscillating beliefs

As sleep comes may I be gentle in my dreams 

Let the lucid self surge in an up swell of consciousness 

step towards gentleness

Take me on a tour of the milk beech wood
Swimming in deep caverns of compassion

until the tranquil dawn

In dream land the unknown shadow will reign 

Bubbling out of the cauldron of a boiling brain

Run riot, play and explore

Unbridled energy

Urgently you call from the loosened bonds of sleep

May this body decipher a lurid pattern of forgiveness 

Comfort and Joy

Let us

Knead love to the edges of our existence

Together become beings stretched

Striving for configurations of unity

A core pulsating to the outer limits

Where nothing rests

The abiding marrow still rich in nutrients

Origin of perpetual life

Love hewn from love then bonded new

Let us

live as though it were true

Rejoice in the luminous now

Rest in a kingdom of the eternal present

Amongst this new spaciousness

Find comfort in that elongated hum
