Passover / UnderTow 2

Chain lightning cast an eerie aural... glowing arc

followed by a low pitched rumbling 

taking my consciousness ...far

beyond horizons, fore and aft...

to imaginations parallel dimensions

which... exist perhaps, of dreams of  souls

 as much like ours as not...

countless lives starting with the love...

like family... because, those who start 

...with nothing

had a backstop in the stars 

 

looking back, at the black hole 

from whence there was no escape 

...for the light

 

because, if seen... 

the discovery would surely expose,

give traction to the fear of... those watching, 

 

of... seeds of rebellion catching wind

 

conditions ripe for change...

finding hearts, eager to fill the void... 

with hope...

 

though, without doubt...

some tortured soul, undoubtedly 

thirsted for vengeance...

 

no doubt, between each... tortured spirit

in the spiritual pool... 

 

the eternal one ...held court...

 

granting some hope for entrapped souls 

of spiritual release for their loved ones 

 

the communion of common heartbeats...

 

searching from within

from the beginnings of creation

in the tides of man

 

flowing, undercurrents...

releasing a ghostly cadence

 

from the first spark of self identity

fuel for thoughts of being... 

 

independent ...of the need... 

for a single leader...

 

each heart exposed 

from the bridge of souls... 

 

close to the edge

of life... 

 

as close to the edge... 

of death

 

so much so... 

that the fear of death

pales in comparison

with the day to day 

waves of suffering...

 

ways, which demonstrate the FX

our lives, matter...

 

not so much

 

and the killing of some 

serve to demonstrate 

 

a founding principle

 

against their constant fear 

someday, the impossible...

might happen,

 

the force fields 

...of the combined will of... 

armed men ...and armies... 

might not maintain security... 

 

even with the best efforts to 

further the continuation of 

some morbid state 

of superiority

 

a steady stream 

of diverse people gathered 

 

from a far away continent

 

ones who possess significant energy...   

 

the consciousness becomes more 

...like... a single voice...

 

begins to coalesce...

 

and with this... echo 

birthing an awareness... 

 

a ripple, in effect 

which, so naturally forms  

 

a focal point from which others

follow suit... 

 

as, it is a burden buried deep

within the souls of all of us who struggle 

 

as once we looked into uncertain skies

as fate was dimmed some time, ago... 

 

looking... way back ...into the mists

past present... 

 

two thirds of beleagered souls in the south 

invoked such fear ...into those, whose eyes

 

through, fear such hatred, burned... 

tables were turned 

 

...in the temple... of life, 

seen by none but the wise

 

friend, Jesus, was at work... 

those days

 

sacrifice was demanded

...and met...

 

death held court...

 

a consciousness coalesced... 

a spark ...met

its mark

 

a hug, 

made action...

 

...gathered traction...

 

at the periphery 

of society...

 

a whisper

begot a gale 

 

with

 dark forces rising...

as they do

 

in cycles

of the moon ...and tides, 

kept time

 

 

saints shed a single tear

as wise men fell 

to their knees... 

in prayer

Thank you, for the space... the time, the moments of reflection, a stage to tease what thoughts upon your minds... fall from the clouds of consciousness, making rain...

Ninah318, Hopefully the slap... was not unlike a lightning bolt standing against a pillar of clouds, draped regally against the night skies... with a high five...
