Escape to Safety

I can't hear

a thing.

In here

I'm a king.

No more

noise.

Only peace

and poise.

Within this

bubble 

I'm without 

trouble.

No wind

gets in.

No storm

can form.

No demon

screaming.

Inside

I can hide.

I can fly.

I can't die.

In this place 

the external 

is replaced 

by eternal.

In this 

covered realm

I can't be

overwhelmed.

In it

I am

transcendent.

Animation 

suspended.

This elation 

is splendid!

What is this space

and where?

The Secret Place

of prayer.

Inner Space

this lair.

Out there

I medicate.

In here 

I levitate 

as I

meditate.

This higher

dimension 

requires

ascension.

Face the day --

Did you know 

it could go

either way?

Intuit

into it --

More than one

there is to it.

A golden chance?

You're holdin' a branch.

Make a decision 

create a division --

a glimpse, a vision 

of diff'rent dimensions.

One way or another --

You will recover 

when you discover 

The Other.

It takes two

(and even more) --

the one you choose 

becomes a door.

Not just 

a platitude --

Adjust 

your attitude 

to one of

multitude.

See the plurality 

in the reality?

The Moment After

After the present chapter

ends

which words will matter 

then?

When the last note

is wrote

and the final song

played 

what will Heaven's hymnal 

and the eternal journal 

say?

Upon the time

when the tale unfolds 

will the same remain 

to hold?

Beyond the veil 

of darkening 

smoke

can you tell 

the surviving spark

of hope?

At the conclusion 

of this material 

illusion 

will there be confusion 

or spiritual 

evolution?

After all 

is done and 

said

the soul shall stand 

to walk among 

the dead.
