to be burden free


when a long journey is a single thought,

unrelenting but not repeating,

just sober into a cloudburst,

a rolling thunder of a throat clear,

distant but embracingly inclusive.

what would words to it have offered,

that feelings have not already spoken?

what a ship of fools never saw 

as happening?

what a flight of doves 

never took their eyes off of in passing?

what address was given 

that had no numbers?

what account was left unsaid, 

that a season of the year spoke about it?

and we could have named an unborn 

in code by that meeting, eye to eye. 

would that have added 

a dimension of embrace 

but not as closure?

would that 

that crossed the lucidity of mind, 

so fervently,

yet still wet 

from a past-lifetime approaching?

in that it stretched the reality veil 

beyond disguise?

and I then thought myself 

to finally be, 

burden free? . . .
