The matter about this matter
is that we created it
mind create matter
mind over matter
and boys and girls
we've lost our fukking minds
don'cha feel it too?
go the lyrics to the song...
don'cha feel it too?
Well, what's to do?
Burying myself in the immediacy
of the moment
I ignore all else that lurks
outside my sandcastle walls
Ah...I get the feeling
the universe is telling me
it will soon be time to go
(emulating the birds in
"Who Knows Where The Time Goes")
and it's saying; See, there ain't that much left
for you to miss out on anymore.
The world is one by one
closing up shop on the things you love.
Ah, ya know what I mean
just look around
Pollyanna has left the building
And if you think it's going to get better
all on its own
and magically right itself again
after this little cosmic glitch--
I'm here to splash some cold water
on that stupidly grinning mug
We're going to have to think our way
out of this one
a crisis of the spirit
We're going to have to call upon
science and religion
our best minds
on the job
(and beyond that...
we should ask ourselves is HE
the sick comedian
we've always suspected?)
There's no other way
because
it poured into my heart
there's love
and there's fear
that's it
the two dynamics of the universe
And so we're going to have to think
our way out of this one
We're going to have to scratch
and claw our way out of this one
We're going to have to
kick and spit and cuss
We're going to have to go down
swinging on this one
We're going to have to love ourselves
out of this one
Voice of reality.
ReplyDeleteThank you, my friend.
DeleteYes, too tempting to bury oneself in 'the immediacy of the moment'. I vote for thinking and loving. Can we do it enough? Can enough of us do it?
ReplyDeleteit's the huge question of our times, and it remains to be seen.
DeleteLike your use of sandcastle walls all brittle and ready to collapse in this day and time Hoping for better times
ReplyDeleteThat stood out to me, too.
DeleteThank you, Marja.
DeleteThank you, Jenna.
DeleteHumans are so vain as to think they have any control over natural disasters and epidemics. If we do realise we need to prepare for Covid's of the future we are in a minority as we will revert to being the foolish animals we are.
ReplyDeleteThanks for your comment. The question being asked by quantum physics now is does consciousness, or mind, act upon the world, and that is the gist of the poem.
DeleteI love your stream of consciousness. I love "closing up shop on the things you love" and the closing line. What's the matter. It's wake up call. Cold is the water.
ReplyDeleteThanks so much, Colleen. We are not unwitting victims in our lives...to take that mindset is to deny the power of the mind.
Deleteyou got rhythm, you got craft. you got a story great for my senses. i enjoyed it!
ReplyDeleteYou're very kind. Thank you!
DeleteYup, I'm sure that Pollyanna left the building LONG ago!
ReplyDeleteFly free my friend. I will miss your voice.

ReplyDeleteglobal extermination by 2025 - And I've sent this & messaged DOD & military base's in new mexico re: Dulce's military base as well; It's gonna be a literal, human incomprehensible global bloodbath massacre & not even the word nightmare nor Crime's against humanity can scratch the surface. Including those fool's (devil court jester's) - The 'Utah Data Center', code-named "Bumblehive". And the Multiprogram Research Facility in Oak Ridge, Tennessee.
ALL $ bought & sold out your humanity & NON-SELF owned Soul (as solely God owns ALL), but re: Even with & like THOSE upon indian reservation (no respect for THE LAND) = New Mexico's 7 mile's down Dulce military base (& their just ONE amidst USA, despite global elsewhere), but press - on your computer keyboard key's Ctrl & 'F' & search / find keyword - type in: Level 6 & see thereof text wordage around thereof: https://www.crystalinks.com/undergroundbases.html.
Globalist's, misc aren't really doing what they plan on, their really just passing the time, evil - senselessly, & their talk of reducing 7 billion plus down to 500 million, huh, OH don't think it'll stop there, oh no, just so Satan who solely started this Holy War against God, can eventually 'spite' God with exhibited all human eventually narrowed down & killed, like Satan's timeless laughing off it's ass at us (having put on a clueless humor show for that beast) & deeming to God, "LOOK AT THEM ALL, YOUR SO-CALLED PRIDE & JOY, THEIR SUPPOSE TO REPRESENT YOU?!"
Huh, LISTEN . . . to our fellow human Brother, just another Son of Adam & Eve, Steven Frederic Seagal's word's very carefully & TAKE IT TO HEART! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8B0np_o1VBg
