THE MANY RIBBONS OF EVOLUTION

Folder: 
JOURNAL # 41

if I could
but go to sleep
to never again
wake up
sometimes
I believe
that I
very well
may/would
if it were but not
for that being
a mere Coward's Option
I could all the more
cleverly challenge
reasons' excuse
for such weakened leaning
towards such dismal notion
through the force of
my energy's spirit
the deep inner knowing
admits to the
noise in my mind
that it
through God's omnipotence
opted for this life's experience
so I must endure
and try to garner
'The Many Ribbons Of Evolution'
from the
scrapings of the world's
most fierce tribulations
even as I question
the validity to do with
everything I am
among its
more and less blind
inhabitants
with a refined clarity
I feel my ration of self power
as I sort through my
careful words
to further and further justify
the truth that refuses
to stop glowing within me
only that big pool of love
we all come from and return to
can heal
the wounds we repeatedly cover up
with humor, logic, fear, indifference
and or the criticism
of others................

Author's Notes/Comments: 

this poem was born of a long deep conversation I had with two different friends about the human path and the human experience and the human fear of the much too complex and or unknown. As we spoke it was as if I could feel my own deeper spirit glowing within. It was a lovely leveling experience. I realized the importance of the inspiration I feel to write about most anything. The higher/deeper self is most often the catalyst.
