First thought
Raw thought
Closer to what is
Next thought
Mired thought
Removed from That Is
Experience, the truth of life
Interpretation, faulty lies
Exaggerate, overstate
Mind-full to complicate
Stories after stories told
Layers ‘neath layers drowned
Too many moments lived
Yet, ‘Now’ untold
Secured within safety nets
Spun from past and future tense
Anger, grief, overwhelm
Never fully facing them
Give into the present thought
Sinking in the mossy bog
See the veil sway and fray,
To
Reveal what is always there
Experience the experience
In the moment’s truthfulness
Cut the webs of mind’s known, that
Cripples you with foregone
Fall through the gaping hole
Into Grace’s lasting hold
