To Charles Shaw, But Not Really😂

Eye don't have to look for you anymore

my finger touches you resting on the ground

I'm laying next to you

I am you, chuckle chuckle

And we know I'm usually up moving around you

dancing synesthetes in each of the four directions

getting lost in our gaze

as the moon points at our finger

but when i breathe in, you breathe, 

Can't you feel it? 

I can almost feel it on a good day

and when I lay down and touch the stomach

doesn't that feel good?

and when you bring me down that rabbit hole

its a whole nother world isn't it?

A world where neither you or I have any footing, 

but we lay back and enjoy the ride

Bumbling Along

MK:  At one of my sacred places this morning (fyi--bike trails east side south of south eastern high school in front of hackberry trees and homeless tent areas--but actually, the judge's house for wayward women on a sunday at 630 am) and I had a glimpse of reality the way our ancestors used to experience it or so I imagine.  Sort of makes it all worthwhile

MO:  Details please.

MK:  Come on you know there can't be details, when the intellectual mind gets involved, it takes away all the fun, total buzz kill.  De-tails.  When you see the tails explaining it--details, it takes away the heart of it.  De-composition, De-compose, De-construction, De-fy, De-scribe.  I don't like this De.  I want to have a word with him.  I will show you my tail though if it helps.  

Oh, and another reason I don't like the catholic churches is I used to work with this guy, and I go to New Years Day Parties at his house.  He lives about 5 miles from you:  https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/David_Clohessy.   And another reason I don't like the catholic church is because they don't allow women priests.  That's a total anathema to what I actually believe in terms of an earth based, nature, woman creator sort of thing.  And because I'm on a roll and evidently need to get this off my chest, I would totally go back to the church if they just came out with the fact that Jesus was likely gay or queer or likely not straight. Then I'd go back to the church because we all know gay people are more fun and to exclude queerness from your community likely founded by a queer seems like a total train wreck.  And if you don't believe me on this, this guy wrote a book on it:  https://lareviewofbooks.org/article/the-queerness-of-it-all-an-interview-with-jeffrey-kripal/

Deep breaths, settle down.

Now to circle back from all of this anti-Catholicism back to the question of of the details of my experience, basically, the fact that I was brought up with a monotheistic religion precludes me usually from the type of experience i had this morning, except on rare occasions when the animistic undercurrents can peek through the totalitarian monotheistic conditioning.  In other words, my fundamental critique of Christianity is that it gets in the way of a more primal intimate experience of reality by superimposing a unitary divinity on the vastness.

Of course, then Kali reminds me just to shut the fuck up.
