AS ...if on a world +afar


(prelude)
 
AS...

 

 we bask together 
in the afterglow of all creation, suspended in space & time 
drifting in a slow motion ballet of lost emotions...
we once felt within our mothers wombs
trying to get back somewhere inside

 

 
 
AS, 

on... 
a world

 

 afar 
we bask

 

 together 
in the afterglow

 

 of all creation

 

 
suspended

 

 in the moment of this 

 

 
...a space in time 

 

 

 

 
drifting...

 

 


in

 

 a slow motion

 

 ballet

 

 of lost

 

emotions... 
we once felt

 

within our mothers wombs 

 

 
somehow hoping to find a way 
trying to get back 
somewhere 
inside...

 

  
still,

 

until we do... 
i will take my chances, 

 

 
stuck here

 

 with all of you 
(hopelessly addicted to love and happiness 
...and little childrens smiles) 

 

 
as if, in a small boat 
as we travel to 

a world afar 

...falling

 

 through the hole 
in the spiral galaxies 
colliding, 

 

 
without touching, 
with molecules

 

turned

 

inside out...

 

  
here

 

amidst the

 

background radiation

 

of the sun, 

 

 
in the starfield

 

that streams along 
as if knowing us,

 

aware we're here 
putting on such a show 

 

 
fantastic showers of light 

 

 
giving us a moon 
which flashes us 

 

in phases...

 

  
even,

turns the tides 
affecting

our emotions 
showering us

with 
unseen energies 
in waves, 

 

 
surrounding us...

as we...

float in and out 
of consciousness 
and dream... 

 

 
of life beyond 
as a

cosmic wave 
goes on by... 

 

 
with us, in tow 
we are still afraid, 

 

 
but there's just 
nowhere

we 
can hide 

...as

fellow passengers

on a train 

 

 
sparks of human life 

 

 
carried helplessly 
along 

...as if unaware 
of our importance 
to one another

 

  
as we travel 
through these 

 

 
endless realms 

 

 
of eternal 
night
