Ultimately,

 

As the earth falls in love with the sun and the moon

 

In her manifestation of day into night,

 

The Light revolves and resolves as an open window

 

to the Soul-Seed of the Spirit unearthed,

 

Both green and supple and malnourished

 

In ignorance

 

Here lies divination of both God and Man

 

In sound resonance thrice bequeathed,

 

A magnificent obscurity

 

We are

 

Fallen angels into materiality, transported to

 

A linear dimension called time, an essence

 

Of dreamtime,

 

Since dreaming is a but a remembrance of a

 

Distant drum, a far-and-away cognizance of what beats

 

In our heart,

 

And this is how we remove ourselves from the truth and

 

The light, a faint brush with both life and death

 

A glow of transcendence, of enormous significance,

 

Resolutely and absolutely endearing itself to the

 

Quest of a Holy Grail,

 

A momentous undertaking, a walking in and as the

 

Way of Life, and the question remains

 

Quo Vadis?

 

Ultimately the resolution is the solution of this paradox, a

 

Synergetic hypothetic magnetic resonance in the

 

Transference of mutuality designed in one stroke,

 

One beginning breath, Aum

 

A sound of Bliss enrapturing hearts as they break

 

In the silence of the stars.
