“The learned who can explain the meaning of truth are not found everywhere.” Nagarjuna
Where The Water Caught Fire The one way, where dual binaries easily slip away unnoticed by the focussed heart, who looks for the now of now, an ecstasy of the soft underfoot, the heathed path shadowed by clouded greys above my thoughts of encompassing all that is, because it is, and embody the feelings that wash over me as words choke and desire wants to shout in this moment of encounter at this still point of interdependence, in the very place where the water caught fire and I became.

just a thought, currently submitting a collaborative effort “requested” by a literary magazine … let’s see how we manage that first. My spelling and punctuation are not the norm … so I know any editing will be unpopular 😦
