On Becoming Something Quite Different
I
t doesn’t have to be
a quantum change,
or monumental at all,
to shift to strange;
to stand in
bewildered wonder
at a reality
too different,
too alien,
too welcoming
to be comprehended
at all.
It can be a little thing,
a “yes”, or a “no”,
a left turn
that should have been
right.
(refrain)
And you won’t understand,
you can’t even know,
the madness that now stands before you.
And you won’t understand,
you can’t even know,
until it’s too late,
and you do.
Welcome, and Namaste
Greetings fellow travellers,
For you American friends visiting, you will notice that this old Canadian uses Canadian English in this blog: kindly bear with me. As I blog primarily on subjects that are vitally interesting to me, I appreciate all feedback.
As I tend to be a bit of a language usage freak, I will, as required, edit obscenity and rude comments. That said, I welcome your opinions and discussion.
May your Dharma be clear
Peace
"If we shadows have offended,
Think but this, and all is mended:
That you have but slumb'red here,
While these visions did appear."
