empirical is made of night-shade

 

when empirical gets in the way,

when habit is a dependency,

when proof is used as positional,

when people live for the luggage 

of experience,

when the symbology stands for itself,

when validation is next-breath dependency,

when apprehension is presented 

as human dignity,

when reactiveness is deemed to be 

self in authorship, 

are these all bench marks of human frailty

or just veils in the way 

of self-depth perception? 

we are all trained to be experience junkies 24/7.

it is easier to see but harder to realize,

from where within does recognition go beyond account,

where living only infers the wealth 

of being within,

where inner self is a wealth of dialogue 

as being,

where hum is an original language base 

for a hum-an,

where coming home is seeing 

the outward worldly view

from an inner residence of self 

as present and aware.

empirical is just self limiting method.

habit becomes less sentient on try two.

proof is only asking for 

name-tags on everything.

experience does not have to be 

as baggage or carry-ons.

symbology keeps the mind 

as first-audience in approval.

validation is lacking 

in one's own birthright. 

apprehension is a false-directive 

made positive

and reactiveness is a pseudo sense 

of inclusion.

when seeing is not sight by knowing

and when knowing is self-sourced 

from more deeply within,

then the experiential world is 

more dimensions rich

than empirical can ever claim 

to be . . .
