VISION
VISION
_______
LISTENING TO THE MUSIC
PLAY ITS SOUNDS
AND THE MANTRA CHANT
THERE IN THE MIDST
OF IT ALL
I BEGAN TO SING
AS I SANG
THERE WAS A FORM
IN FRONT OF
MY CLOSED EYES
IT WAS DARK
THEN THE LIGHT
FORMED AROUND HER
SHE WAS SHROUDED
IN BLACK
AND I WAS SAD
I WAS WORRIED FOR HER
SHE SAID I BEEN
MOURNING
I SAID OVER WHO
SHE SAID OVER THE LOSS
OF HIM
I SAID I AM SORRY
SHE SAID NO I AM
GLAD YOU CAME
I THOUGHT YOU WOULD
NEVER COME BACK
I JUST SMILED
I THEN SAW A SMILE
FORM ON HER FACE
AND THE VEIL LIFTED
HER HANDS AND ARMS
BEGAN TO MOVE
SHE SAID WALK WITH ME
THEN APPEARED
A PATH INFRONT OF ME
JUST A PATH TO EACH
SIDE WAS DARKNESS
I DIDN'T WANT TO STRAY
THAT MOMENT
SO I WALKED WITHOUT
LOOKING TO THE SIDES
ONE FOOT IN FRONT OF THE
OTHER
I SAW BLACK TURN
TO RED
THEN RED TURN
TO SAND
AND THE SAND BECAME
JEWELS
AND THE JEWELS
THEN STONES
AND THE PATH THEN
WAS SOLID
AND I LOOKED AROUND
ALL AROUND
THERE THEY WERE
I SAW THEM ALL AGAIN
STANDING
DANCING
SINGING
PLAYING
AND LOVING
I LOOKED FORWARD
AND THEN
THERE WAS HER
SHE MOTIONED
TO ME
SO I BEGAN TO MOVE
IN THE FLOW WITH
MY HANDS AND FEET
AND I STOOD THERE
IN POSITION
MOVING IN THE POSES
TIL IT FORMED
IN MY HANDS
I FELT THE ENERGY
FLOWING IN AND DOWN
MY ARMS
IN A MOMENT IT
WAS THERE
AS PLAIN AS DAY
A FLOWER
YELLOW
AND SINGLE
I PRESENTED
IT TO HER
AND SAID THIS
I MADE FOR YOU
JUST FOR YOU
SO YOU WOULD SMILE
AGAIN
SHE SAID SIT MY DEAR
SIT WITH ME
AND I DID
SHE WAS INFRONT
ACROSS FROM ME
I WATCHED
HER ARMS MOVE
I WATCHED HER FACE
I THEN SAW
THE MINDS EYE
FLOATING IN THE DISTANCE
I SAW HER
PLAYING AND THE MUSIC
FLOWED IN MY HEART
ONCE AGAIN
THE BLISS
SURROUNDED ME
AS I WATCHED
AND SMILED
MY FACE GLOWED
AND MY HANDS
SOARED IN MOVEMENTS
I COULDN'T STOP
THEM IF I WANTED TO
I SAW THEN DANCERS
FLOW IN AND OUT
BETWEEN US
I SAW GANASH
SIT TO HER LEFT
AND OPEN CUSHION
ON THE RIGHT
I SAW BRAHMA
THE THREE FACES
FLOWED
THEN OUT OF THE
HEADS CAME
THE KALI
AND KALI DANCED
ON THEIR HEADS
AS SHE DANCED
I WATCHED
THEN SHE CAME
BACK IN FRONT OF ME
ALL HER ARMS
OUT AND MOVING
AS A RED FLAME
FORMED
THEN SHE SAT BACK
DOWN
AND SAID COME TO ME
MY DEAR
COME TO ME
NOW
I HAVE SOMETHING
TO SHARE WITH YOU
AS YOU HAVE
SHARED WITH ME
I WALKED UP
TO THE STEPS
TO THE AREA
SHE WAS
I SAW GANASH SMILING
AT ME
THEN IN A WOMAN
CAME AND HANDED
HER A CUP FULL
OF SOMETHING
SHE TOOK IT
AND HANDED IT OUT
TO ME SAYING
DRINK WITH ME
DRINK WITH ME NOW
BUT THEN AS I LOOKED
INTO THE BOWL
IT WAS CLEAR
LIKE WATER
SO I DRANK IT DOWN
SHE THEN TOOK
THE BOWL CUP
AND DRANK AFTER ME
SHE SMILED
AND SAID NOW SIT
NEXT TO ME
SIT NEXT TO ME
MY DEAR
I WENT UP TO THE
RED AND BLUE
CUSHION
AND SAW IT HAD
SILVER AND GOLD
TRIM
AND TASSELS
I SAT DOWN
AND SHE BEGAN
TO SING
AND AS SHE SANG
SHE SAID LOOK
AND I LOOKED OUT
AND DANCING IN AND OUT
OF THE SCENE
WAS THE GALAXY
AND PEOPLE
FLOWING IN AND OUT
DANCING AROUND
AND SHE SAID
LAY YOUR HEAD DOWN
I DID SO
NOT A WORD SPOKEN
JUST LISTENING
SHE THEN BEGAN
TO BRUSH MY HAIR
AND I FELT IT ON MY
HEAD
I FELT THE BRUSH
OF HER ON MY SKIN
AS SHE TOUCHED
MY FACE
AND I TURNED
AND LOOKED UP
AT HER
SHE SMILED BACK
DOWN TO ME
AND SAID
DON'T STAY AWAY
FOR SO LONG
AGAIN
A TEAR FELL
FROM HER FACE
THEN AS THE
TEAR HIT MY
FACE
I OPENED MY EYES
AND I WAS AGAIN
BACK IN MY CHAIR
LISTENING
TO THE CHANTING
AND IN THE DISTANCE
WHEN I RE CLOSED MY EYES
THE EYE WAS THERE
FAR FAR AWAY
GLOWING WHITE
AND MY CAT
WAS BELOW ME
RUBBING UP
ON MY HANDS
AS I OPENED MY EYES
AGAIN I REALIZED
I HAD NO MORE PAIN
AND I FELT BETTER
I SMILED
AND SAID I WILL BE BACK
AND IN THE DISTANCE
THE VOICE I HAD
GROWN ACCUSTOMED
TO WAS DISAPPEARING
AND I SOON
COULD NOT HEAR
HER ANYMORE
NOR THE SCREAMS
OR THE YELLING
ONLY SILENCE
AND PEACE
FILLED MY HEART
I AM ME AGAIN
