Quiet … peace … nothing …
Silent blissful solace
Then an event of unprecedented proportion
A spark … a flash …energy
Absolute chaos
Endless expansion … endless space
Time … millennia … countless eons
Breath … life … consciousness
Me
I am … I think … I feel
I wonder about it all
I am the universe come to consider itself
To ask the question
Who am I? Is this all that I am? Is this all that there is?
I look for order and find none
Small wonder, we were born of chaos
But once I looked hard enough I found great beauty in the chaos
Why is knowing that not enough?
Why do I bleed inside?
When does it end?
So much to say, so many questions
So much to give, so many who need
Would that I could give more
For the greatest I can receive is in the giving
But then does knowing that mean that the act of giving is now a selfish act?
Oh boy … I better CLEAR THE MECHANISM
Quiet … peace … nothing …
Silent blissful solace
Then a predictable event
The phone rings ….
Life goes on
Life Goes On

of course life goes on…are You endlessly in bliss? nothing lasts forever…not even the here and now..
I am a silent artist…subjective to critics and clinicians…I don’t care what anyone else thinks…because, my hair is not like theirs or my clothes like theirs…does not mean I am I worthless…keep in mind…if I were Your mother…You would be in line…I come from a policing family…anyhow, all I have to say I said already…
I have nothing to hide…except deep inside, no one wants to know what is there…look to Nat King Cole..he has the answers…to all of our souls….regardless, of my disregard to Obamma, Nat King Cole is the best…sending a note to the post comment…notify me…on the follow-up comments..
thanks from a grandma at best.
Hi Merriam,
No .. I am not endlessly in bliss. No one is. And I do know that nothing lasts forever. If you are an artist, then you will appreciate that this is just my soul exploring and putting those explorations in words. Have you?
As for being “in line” .. I think I will let that one slide.
As for Nat King Cole, and mothers, perhaps look at this …

I wish you well .. Merriam
Cheers,
