Poetry list
over familiar
blessed to make
our home in this
world
too readily assuming
this is all there
is
reading the signals
and making patterns of
meaning
in our own language
our own image
yet there is more
always more
and it can be
found in
less
ego and importance
impede the
truth
and yearn for
comfort status
and affirmation
nothing is ours
owned and
possessed
yet dust and
matter are
touched by
transcendence
the love we miss
by familiarity and
self
whose immanence
is so simple
we overlook
and disregard
seeking the power
and glory
that deceives
put out to the
deep
