deer eyes a blackbird: a vision

Jul 04, 2005 15:57

you must speak! you must speak!

the answer to the antlers is
the rising doe of the jellyfish

blackbird pecking for
portraits of past
flies forth from ba branch

eyelash wings flash
in satori whoosh waves of
walked ceilinglessness
sealing skies of
eye
less
ports to lands of green seen in
dharmic dreamscenes

her feathered face
the ebb and flow

a conch shell serenade of
baby blue eggs glowing to a
crackle

the ceiling is an eye with dancing iris -

falling

into

it

rubbing eyes
seeing golden eye god-depths of reflection
finding self on
floor of forest
under serried spiderwebs
almost cloudlike in their fluff
spiderlimbs intertwining
with red-wined lizard divinities that

eyeless - see all
mouthless - tell all

the golden infinite eye
is present still and i
again
fall
into
it
rubbing my eye
into wakefulness

faint far off clinking
sound of something like
chimes
chirping blackbirds
whispering deer shaman
see through them

"get into my eye!" he commands

i wanted to know how i looked...

a peripheral epiphany
a mirrored hawk perched
atop birch branches worn round
necks, wings cocked back
ready for flight

time loses
focus and floats
under seas of serrein serenity

to dream...

an unfamiliar grocery store gone golden
failing to fully convey the way
find myself in cacti section
all of them beautifully
shaped on shelves that crawl
up walls
like ivy

he gives me a peyote button
that so closely resembles
scallion eaten with messiahs and
lovers

float i to the ceiling slowly
(a)peering down saw all
the people were dogs
fully aware of their godhood

rejoice!

i smiled and fell through the
ceiling feeling jubilant into
lush
lush
lush forests of a south america

eye blinked the rain began its
whimper through the tarantular trees
i'd never seen

i saw each raindrop a person and
opening my mouth pelican wide that
i may drink each drop that
they may grow in (through) me

i slipped
to ground though with a van gogh grace that hinted at
purpose

i stretched my arms christlike and
roots they became stretching in
every direction

my eyes grew out of my
head like towering pillars and
i saw
each level
simultaneously

i swallowed my tongue and flowers
BURST into bloom from my mouth
orange and yellows and blues the hues
of which i'd never seen and

i saw i was these colors
i am
these colors
nay, every color!
purple and green burst forth now and

i realized these colors are
the colors of my true sadagati lovers
each color a friend and

i laughed
surrounded, enveloped by the
ALL

my laughter became wonderous clouds
that cleverly wrote unfamiliar
phrases of other languages
across my babbling towers of eyes

i felt myself slowly
sinking
into
earth
with each raindrop god and

smiled again

knowing i was to be shown
further nearly unimaginable
expressions of beautiful
perfection

i sunk
swallowed by earth and at the same (time)
i rose

into bed wakefulness
eyes glanced left to

her face with its
omniscient hint of a smile that
exudes all there is...

beauty, bliss, perfection, and i

laughed
laughed
laughed

like a thunderclap to the silence

like a lightning-licked limb strained through teeth

like an antlered visitation from self

shaman am i, amen.
