catch yourself and see

[desmond dillon]

    

Its not the telegraph poles  

that stick up like thoughts  

and things to say

Its not the telegraph poles

that will count

at the end of the day

but the gaps in between is our home

the gaps where we fly alone.

we have not much to win or lose

except our precious peace and love

its all or nothing every breath

it always was and is til death

for those with eyes to see..

In the midst of this moving mirage

illusion swirling all around

moves this moment:

a magic miracle

grail waiting to be found

and so long as we don't know ourselves

it can't be done

we won't be crowned.

so find a doorway thru' the looking glass

to the timeless world within

and catch that moving target

there knowledge of the human being begins.

then no more glinting

glittering brief reflections

seen in what we think we want

but cushioned ease and sweet content

is entertainment of the heart.

we have it all: we are it

and the cock must crow the dawn

just catch yourself and see.
