Morning pages 7.25.09


Saturday morning
weekend without fanfare
astral weeks
crampy fiance
sleeping naked
dreams of longing nubile
stood strong

the muses world shifting
beckoning the artists date
putting ribs on
and chandy
red zone gentle leader
squeals to be crushed

regret frustration
neighborhood walk
tv comedy
today is new

escape the house hold and studio dichotomy
with video camera?
or balls of thread
to make poetry
with each breath

sailboats
yawning
in and out of dock
scraggle of parking lot
paintful heat
lapping up like flames

I am looking for that place that person that thing
that that state of mind

that is untouched by time and place and its troubles

the fortress of samadhi
Milarepa's castle
which has white stones
and green moss
rising from the crags' of suffering
to the heights
kissed by conditionless
loving kindness

back down on the keyboard
fingers
pause
mind and heart bicker
over logistics
intent

wording
of
meaning

of happiness
unsought
comes hither
unbidden
finds one out

so play and work
untangle
in sweet rain of seconds
into a stream of minutes
a swelling of hours a
crashing of a day
like a gently turning page
in my unwritten book

Sir Sir
come sir come finish this finish this chapter
tell us
what next
what's next?

I dont know

I really don't know
