WITHIN MY OWN WITHIN

JOURNAL #39

I emptied my brain
of all its prior confines
I studied the masters
and naysayers alike

in my own pure/impure life
while through such times

talking points with arguments
worthy of careful computation
only to fall on my own sword
of factual distaste
realizing in the depths of
all my outwardly seeking
questions
that all the answers

lay ever quiet
'Within My Own Within'
and suddenly
like shifting sands
my own truth began to bloom
from out of the cracks of
all those glorious unintentionally told
self lies
and now I can live
in abundance without guilt
for from this very controversy formed
the gradual breaking of
those old former ties
and now it's for you

and arise in calm seed spirit
