Compared to Spirit we are dead

[Guest guest]

Certainly we are living

compared to stones,

but compared to

Spirit

we are dead.

 

In a dream you think

you are seeing and observing

but those who are standing

outside you, awake,

know you are sleeping still.

 

The living ones

call the dead 'the dead'

and higher living Beings

call living ones the dead.
