I Feel


In these moments my ear does not compare.
Lies are far less an investment
with my human imperfections.
Truths are far more difficult
to recognize when viewed through lying eyes;
heard through lying ears.
But truths that I do not see; that I do not hear
are beautiful truths indeed.

Is it the waves of the universe
I ride upon bareback.?
I take flight with gold and silver wings.
Or is it something far more simply complex?

I can feel it...the truth.
I can feel you...the truth.

If encountered with my human frailties...hope
...would be hopeless.

A plain of existence never walked upon before
...is now all that materializes beneath
my naked feet.

I am beckoned by what has only been present
in my dreams...before this moment.

This beckoning?

Is this the waves I question
that I cannot see with my eyes;
that I cannot hear with my ears?

I feel...

I feel my eyes;I feel my ears;I feel with my soul.

I feel the transforming of a meaningless existence
into a far grander purpose and you are undeniably
present.

Or is it something far more simply complex?

Tammy...
I feel with my hands!
...sorry I couldn't resist!

Is it the waves of the universe
I ride upon bareback?

...moved me.

AND...

If encountered with my human frailties...hope
...would be hopeless.

A plain of existence never walked upon before
...is now all that materializes beneath
my naked feet.

...stimulates my mind.

these two entrances (doors) I open with seperate thoughts and I like where I go.

***One question though: if they are unknown where does the beauty lye?----

"But truths that I do not see; that I do not hear
are beautiful truths indeed."

Human sense? False reality!
See not with your eyes. Hear not with your ears.

All is truly "known" only by the soul...feel with the soul. Therein resides the truth and beauty.

Your on a roll tonight!

Thanks again

simply complex
as I said on LJ, this struck me as much more a stream of consciousness, than a conventional kind of poem with all the technical ins and outs. I think this would be a really good thing to expand, keep a kind of free-form blog of the spiritual musings of Tammy Hendrix…

really enjoyed reading these… food for thought, indeed…

Spiritual musing you say Shannon
Well....a free form blog, huh? Not a bad idea. So is that the tech term that this would be categorized as...spiritual musings? I suppose it is I just....I just let it out? Don't know the tech in and outs that you speak of so I don't understand what makes this not a "conventional" poem.

As always dear, thanks for the advice. Definitely give it some thought. Honestly thought...I wouldn't know the difference between this piece and any other I've written as far as their categories.
xoxo

I feel
A superbly written poem, validating the existence of
God and the inner soul. I feel the time-space vibration in reading this poem. This poem possesses many layers in discovering a new truth of self. Indeed ,I like this poem, because it moves in a coherent direction, toward the inner soul. Keep sharing and seek God's wisdom

hmm
I heard god was dead? was i tragically misinformed? interesting poem, an enjoyable insight into yourself. though myself, i feel quite contrarily that we make too much of what we feel, and indeed it is through this examination of self that we see 'beauty', only, as i see it, to find that it is ourselves that create, label and define beauty, without such examinaitons beauty would certainly be non-existant. though this itself grants its own beauty.

so i enjoyed this poem, mainly for its ability to evaluate the way we evaluate. if that in fact makes any sense at all. either way, 'twas fun. Though, proof of god i somehow doubt, as it seems to suggest that we're all looking upon ourselves in wonder. not that this is bad, you understand, just that this is the case.

Thanks for the read.

Thea.
