Drinking from this cup
Poetry is an ever flowing cup of abundance
Drinking from this cup is not only a sacred
experience
It's a sacrifice of one's selfishness
To receive an open source of selflessness
Poetry does not teach effortlessness
It uncovers the field of abundance and purposefulness
And makes you a part of it
Consciousness is not a dream
It is the edge of the dream that has found its funnel
We are this fountain that opens the door of mystery
We are the cup full of the unknown
But we need to recover our long lost sense of
awareness
A realm far more beautiful than our present
circumstances
Poetry is a divine world of Light
Every word spoken is a beautiful spacecraft
That brings a load of pleasantries from the furthest
corners of consciousness
It is not possible to be a Poet
Unless one is a pot of mystery
Do not look at me with wonder
Be the wonderful moment
That poetry can draw inspiration from
Drinking from this cup is not for the academically
attuned
It is for those who have liberated themselves
From the clutches of the classroom
It is for the absentminded, seekers, dreamers,
lovers... Etc
Those who found the nest of Silence outside the
perimeter of logic
Poetry is a pure form of knowing
It is the ultimate gift from the Creator's studio
And every aspect of it is divine
Drinking from this cup is priceless
