to wake

to wake

on the canal boat

beside your lover

with your son

in the next room


to sit together

on the deck

in the ethereal glade

where the morning dew

echoes the lack of disturbance

on the cusp of understanding

on the cusp of understanding

where one line ends

and another begins

where becoming settled

is the very time for conclusion


yet tomorrow as today

the process

will be separated

exploring caverns in the darkness

always to find a light


as if

even without questions answered

a peaceful resting place

may evolve

as a psychological reconstruction

just at that very moment

just at that very moment

as the end bell rings

i have everything in its place

all is settled

the once turbulent waters are still


yet of course

there is more to be worried about

each detail will

turn over or introduce

a further detail


and so life will go on

also dreams and meditations

where the working out

has its own methods

as well as its own motivations

how?

how?

all by coincidence

or mostly


years later

the amazement

rises to the surface


streets

requiring

aeroplane travel


jobs

chancing ones arm

day by day


and love

there in continuum

going up and down

clarity is the sublime emptiness

clarity is the sublime emptiness

love is the exquisite completeness

between clarity and love

the soul and the spirit

are continuously replenished

as long as

the heart is still beating
