Glimpses of Nirvana
In the darkness of the night, only occasionally relieved by glimpses of Nirvana as seen through other people's windows, wallowing in a morass of Self-despair made only more painful by the knowledge that all I am is of my Own making. When everything around me, even the kitchen ceiling, has Collapsed and crumbled without warning. And I am left, standing in the eye Of a well looking up and wondering why and wherefore. At a time like this, Which exists maybe only for me, but is nonetheless real, if I could Communicate, and in the telling and the bearing of my soul anything is Gained, even though the words which I use are pretentious and make you Cringe with embarrassment, let me remind you of the pilgrim who asked for An audience with the Dalai Lama. He was told he must first spend five Years (in) contemplation. After the five years, he was ushered into the Dalai Lama's presence, who said, Well, my son, what do you wish to know? So the pilgrim said, I wish to know the meaning of life, father. And so The Dalai Lama smiled and said, Well my son, life is like a beanstalk, Isn't it?
Held close by that which some despise Which some call fate, and others lies And somewhat small for one so tall A doubting Thomas? Who would be? It's written plain for all to see For one who I am with no more It's hard at times, it's awful wrong
