Poetry is deeper than entertainment
When Poets pour themselves on the capet of existence and fuse
themselves with the sacred Light
It is not for the sake of entertainment only
It is the spiritual connections with each other that are awakened
and illuminated
It's like casting a spell deep into the human spirit
Every person, regardless of their location, race or creed can
feel the vibrations
As the Poet digs deep, he (she) comes across a realm of us
(Oneness)
A weirdly interconnected dimensionless world
Where everything is shared and distributed equally
There is no time or space between our hearts
Sorrow and love, all exist within us
There is no open wound that we don't share
As long as we are human beings, we remain one
We can pretend all we want to be individuals, independent of each
other
Feed our ever hungry egos with worldly desires and material needs
Redefine ourselves with identities, attachments, expectations,
entanglements, achievements and possessions
But at the level of the Poetic Spirit, we cry and dance together
inside the house of humanity
Poetry is both ecstasy (entertainment) and sorrow
It is the hidden oasis of our being that is illuminated by the
poetic spirit
Deep in the forest of our consciousness
There are no secrets, just us held together by Love (and sorrow)
We are forever in the frequency of Oneness in the deepest part of
our being
The Poetic Spirit is only a conduit leading us to our true nature
