An energy being etched in sentience,
I sail a sea of consciousness
Resolved to know of separation
Though foreign to my soulfulness.
Before and after split the present
Where previously was only now;
And here and there suggest a distance,
An edge of presence to avow.
Created thus a sense of other,
This self-affirming program runs,
The oneness hidden, all forgotten,
Displaced by limits—chosen ones.
What's “other” then may soon be taken
To leave bereft, with sense of loss;
And thus is born the fear that rules us,
With thoughts of lack to reinforce.
A sketch arises with experience,
Identified mistakenly
As being self by act and senses,
Illusion clothed in density.
But briefly comes miraculous knowing
That supersedes all time and space;
Awareness like eternal substance
At frequency of perfect grace.
