witness

witness

witness can never be the wisdom.

the self, in the environment of witness,

can benefit from the expression from within,

while witness is only permitted 

to be in audience there of.

how witness applies

is as a lip-service, 

attempting to speak the truth.

linearity, as language spoken,

can never present the hologram

that is lived in the moment.

if wisdom comes,

it's from a deeper residence

than witness can provide.

all great lawyers know

that truth can be presented in such a way,

where there is not truth to the matter,

but more so, there is a truth 

to be obtained and then secured.

in this way, truth is a lot like freedom.

conceptually, both suffer 

from the same perceptual dis-ease.

freedom and truth live in the moment

but never really as after the fact.

memory is either the shovel or the bouquet 

and time will do the burying . . .
