We each have an inherent potential
Within us
Beyond us
Among us
To transcend this pinprick yelp of our brief lives
In so doing, dissolve into a rippling field
Become a wave
Not a singular place on the wave
But the wave itself
Big
Losing sense of self
Completely
Jumping past
All earthbound limitations
Just like the shamans and mystics
Of the past foretold
Imagination holds the key
To fire neural passageways
To missing synapses
Forgotten genes
Revealing
Cosmic mysteries
Through this wisdom now revealed
Vibrate on waves
Of distant starlight
Crossing time across the night
Just disembodied thoughts
Transcending timebound physicality
Or is this is just an errant thought?
Are we shackled here and now
To this cruel paradigm
Of accepted thought and shared belief
In cause
Effect
& Evidence
Firmly anchored on the ground
No chance ever
Of soul’s release
Or do intuition and the heart
Hold sway?

I am going all-in that intuition and the heart have something to say & do in this…Great poem, David.
