PERMANENCE

 

Searching, searching
in all things transitory for permanence
whether earthly, immaterial, celestial 
or a beloved nothing.
Behind and beyond the motivation
 and will to survive, seek and find
lies the indelible ache for the womb: Home.
The ancient longing for rest
 - to stop, end. For ever and ever.
Not just weary of toil and ignorance,
 the dangers of being in 3D,
but worn to the bone by the struggles
and responsibilities of every day;
by the cosmic Laws themselves -
of uncertainty, disentropy, chaos:
bedrock of all human fear and folly.
 
Don’t we find the essence 
of anything within its opposite 
- where the dualities meet?
Every element, quality or principle
inherently containing the coding,
 the seed for its antithesis?
The inevitability of a final Switch
 - off or over. The null point,
when gravity and polarity cease.
 
Be still! The holiest command.
