SACRED SILENCE




Why the journey aboard?


A second ascent to a continent where I was just present. 


The first an attempt to explore a small extent of opportunities beyond my countries boundaries whose borders collide and divide within me.


Five familiar faces as close as family living in comfortable hospitality without burdens of responsibility upon me.


A great introduction in preparation for an elaborate production.


The intent was to grieve, to leave behind bitter lies, loss and broken memories, primarily a host of voices within me...to find and restore my true identity—What existence and the world has meant to me.


It’s has already been a success indeed, as I sat in a bunk contemplating things with a friendly sojourner like me.


Has it become that every face I see is reflecting something in me?


I burned a bridge, high on the ridge, I concluded a decades worth of grief that polluted my soul.


I feel whole.


Faith is gone.


Her familiar face for which I long will never age.


Trapped within a page in my mind, her immature form a stamp in time.


I will no longer conform to the norm nor for anyone perform.


I am home.


Not alone.


No more need to atone.


I roam, but not aimlessly.


I am rich with grace deep inside my body.

Slipping into something he found peaceful and secure filled his heart with flutters of joy that created a deep trust of intimacy in these sweet moments of vulnerability. His delightful enjoyment of her attentiveness awakening a desire within his soul for something more for this intimacy to span beyond these brief moments to last without exception and be shared with none other for here he felt loved and cherished known in a way by the woman he knew an...

BURNING

Berlin, where to begin, a modern palace, a man made palisade, every road a river, every avenue with a view, a canyon as grand as the land upon which it stands. Hand in hand with enemies, armies and allies, museums for spies, not a single tourist what a surprise, then you realize the lies, the wickedness and tyranny, the inhospitality with prejudicial subtlety, who don’t you see, a refugee, not a single unmistakable identity, between you and me, France will exceed their economy, just wait for the hate to gravitate, for the ennui and balanced diversity to betray a brewing unsettled antiequanimity surrounding the lack of equality. Racial intolerance has bubbled to the surface again, only this time it does begin with “I don’t mean to offend...but how far do our borders extend.” ...might I recommend we end an era of empires and cease in territorial defense without offense. There is a new tool, it’s cool.  It’s called unregulated rule. Don’t be cruel. Embrace the unusual. The only thing ...
