Wholeness

To retain wholeness amid a world-

wide craze and persistent bewilderment

one shall turn back perhaps, to the archetypal

lessons of yesterday's non presence.

Bow before the bliss of fool-

hardy illusions at the center of being. 

Believe in the mystery. Doubt it all. 

                                                                                  Recognize, 

love could be [in] vain too, if self-serving.

Love anyway. Wholeheartedly.

Fancily decorated

to draw good karma, fend off bad eyes -

Crackled skies

"Nothing in the world was more difficult than love." - Gabriel Garcí­a Márquez

Shaggy stars

Along the grassy seaside

shaggy stars are shimmering, at sundown.
