The One Hundred Eighty Sixth, July 4, 2011

oh the pondering of deep deep thoughts
slowing the mind in sluggish confinement
bearing all of the attention on one concept
but still unable to decipher the secret code

perhaps it is not really meant to be resolved
but merely serves as an exercise for growth
a way to sharpen and direct the awareness
enabling us to better resolve the others

but yet there comes some anxiety from this
as the internal desires cry out for resolution
needing closure to satisfy the personal ego
unable to admit sometimes we just won't know

  1. Not knowing is always a driving force until we admit defeat.."..The internal desires cry out for resolution" like an musical piece left hanging mid-phrase. I like that you found a positive lesson from it (...serves as an exercise...).

    The first stanza is really excellent. Within three stanzas you cause my mind to reel.
