THE JOURNEY OF YOUR SOUL

Once upon a night, you were mountaintop,
child of awe,
humbled by the majesty
of innumerable pulsing light-beings,
frolicking in the forever-echo
of infinite star-songs.
You gazed upon a celestial theatre.
Some lights shimmered fiery red incandescence,
some cool blue contemplation.
Some huddled together in packs,
others followed their own path.
Each was a candle and a character,
a story to illuminate the mysterious feelings within.
You were alone, but with 100 billion mirrors,
you wove a song of scared magic
that would persist the whole night through.
And that song would continue
as long as you climbed to the mountaintop,
as long as you tubed your pensive gaze upward
and turned your open heart heavenward,
and allowed your imagination to meet its maker.
The divine encounter,
remember?
Unplug!
Unplug your frail, electric umbilical cord.
No television, no computer, no sound system,
no environment to mediate
between you
and the dimensions beyond.
Simply the quiet, vast, unfathomable sky,
the holy star family,
the luminous tribes of the Night…
