the knowing of know

There is the knowing of information,

how to say or not to say

and see it understood.

There are knowings from retention,

experience, common sense, silence,

even apparent emptiness.

There are knowings

from feelings and beyond,

from a hunch knowing,

a gut knowing,

a goose bump knowing,

an itchiness of knowing,

or a knowing that strikes

from nowhere to be sure.

There is the knowing that knows

when knowing is what to do,

that knows of different knowing styles

beyond preparation or referential knowing,

without an introduction knowing

yet completely alert and awaiting.

There is the knowing that addresses

the ambience of things,

that works outside

of convention and identification.

There is the knowing

as from dream states,

even as visceral

or kinesthetic would express.

There is a creativeness

spun as knowing.

There are knowings

that see the principles beyond,

that are not justified or defendable,

that are unacceptable to present.

There is the knowing of the collective,

of what others are thinking

that transcends general knowing,

that leads to leaving knowledge behind,

that unexpectedly comes from the soul,

that does not work towards conclusions.

There is a knowing without curiosity,

a kind of knowing without understanding,

a knowing that wanders rather than retains,

that language could never say,

a knowing that is mentored by time,

a knowing weathered by forgetting.

There are knowings seized by trauma

and driven by resolve,

agenda or subterfuge.

There is a knowing that it only knows

and a knowing that knows of this itself,

as the wardrobe of spirit,

warn to express the being

and that, all of this knowing,

as an expression of being,

however conscious in presence,

is in service to the oneness

are therefore,

essentially sacred,

but only in passing . . .
