It is this infinite diversity and expansion of novelty that is the mark of

infinite creativity, our deeper identity as Life Itself. No two snowflakes are

the same. No two human face, fingerprints, oranges, peanuts, plants are ever

the same under the sun, moon or stars.

If this is a mistake, how about the rest of your poem. Is it also in error?

We worship the past, and that is another mistake, even worse than accidentaly

falling through thin ice and drowning or freezing to death on the side of a

silent mountain.

A WISER DELUSION

 

 

Smart illusion

Sacred inanity

Vanity of vanity

 

All is vanity

There is nothing

New under the sun:

So said Solomon

 

Yet we continue to seek

Ever new escape

From our inevitable folly

Our unenviable shame

Our selective illusion

 

All words for

The same game

 

The present fools the past

The future fools the present

The past fools all

 

As onrushing death

Greets history's parade

Of fools and folly

 

There is no remedy

But merely

Witnessing

All this frivolity

As my own

 

Exquisitely witnessing

Bathed in the crystal

White light love

Of infinite

 

Compassion for

Compassion and

 

It's own pompous

Vitality

 

Exquisitely witnessing

Bathed in the crystal

White light love

Of infinite

 

Compassion for

Compassion and

 

anther

fool for

you

 

in

love

That's true, too.
