Mindful Matter

…

August 16/14

Which came first, the matter or mind… and where to begin when one lags behind?

Is it what it is or is it what it seems?  Are perceptions nothing more than just waking dreams?

…

Yesterday, disappointment held the reins.  It’s taste on the tongue, while it flowed through veins.

Taking arms against trouble produced even more.  Fluctuating frustration didn’t settle the score.

…

Love showed up at first, only in small spaces.  In cracks and corners; smiles on other faces.

But once it emerged, no doubt could be found that darkness is less so with it’s light around.

…

Maybe “there is nothing lacking”, as they say.  Or maybe it all does, at the end of the day.

Just in case all matter comes from the mind, it must search until love is all it can find.
