The Spirit *

You find it
in the stillness,
in the quiet,
where it,
in turn,
finds you.
And moves you,
to take its hand.
You lose yourself in its current.
Floating now,
drifting,
attuning with the mystery.
It washes over you,
nourishes you,
moves through you,
and – in turn,
from you.

I would have called it INSPIRATION but only because in my view spirit already has a different context. A rose by any other name…

Ah, how fecund of us, it seems we are cross-pollenating amongst each other. Pretty soon there will be no way of distinguishing one from another - Resistance is futile. I too had a case of cross-pollenization with another ILP member recently - 'twas Beowulf’s 2nd Mosaic piece which triggered the genesis of my recent ENTROPIC SOLILOQUY poem.

Great work rainey,
N.

Yes, I think it could be put like that.

I do hope I did your words justice. They were poetic enough as is, but I just found myself inspired. Funny how you do that…

rainey,

There are very few people in the world who affect me and are affected by me the way you do and are. Infact I would say there are none. I think this is what is meant by ‘private language’. rainey and liquidangel have a private language.

You’re a part of me angel.

Do you remember my first avatar rainey? It was an angel made of rain…

A

If you two had a kid, you could name it Raingel.

Wow. How beautiful. And yes I remember it well, angel.

Confirmation, this kind of thing. It’s why I write poetry you know.

-Thirst

Why so sad thirsty?

rainey is my brother.

A

I’m sad because I cannot share in your private language and I cannot play in your private world. I am sad that others cannot play in our world… I am sad that we unintentionally exclude so many from our world because there is no time. I am sad because rainey is not my brother. I am sad because god doesn’t exist and I am sad because god exists.

Do I make no sense?

-Thirst

I understand.

This is life, and it’s not meant to make us sad, it’s meant to stretch us beyond ourselves. I am of the opinion that pain is the only way to grow. We have individual connections for reasons that we don’t always understand. Ultimately the way I see it is that we can’t see all of ourselves in one other. We need all others.

A

I forgot to mention that I am also jealous (in case that wasn’t obvious).

-Thirst

If this is true, this comes as very disappointing news for me…

Rainey, I am not as romantic as you…
I wish I were more like you.

-Thirst :frowning:

Then we must be more alike than you know.

I was an only child. God is dead - long live god. Thirst For Polka.
