Only You.

[Guest guest]

Look at this desiring,

and watch your image arrive

as only you.

 

Nothing here transpires

as other.

All your love children

return home.

Be careful not to give birth to orphans.

 

Before I was conceived in Gods labor,

I would make wild claims of

unreal things. Like -

My body, my mind, my soul,

my belief.........

 

We love to grab bits of reality

and plant a personal flag on some

imaginary land we call mine.

As if that could ever be real?

 

Here is the news -

No one has a single thought

of their own. Ever.

What we identify as ours

becomes a barking dogma.

 

My tongue keeps trying

to free itself,

from the idea of my mouth.

 

Its our freedom

to be less than everything,

but I won’t sing

without your voice.

 

 

love

 

eric
