Slip Back



Lately I've found a place for focus of a different kind. I'm not sure how to describe this place because defining it diminishes it somehow.

I wrote a poem - more of a canto really - that describes going there.

Perhaps it is a simple meditation. I don't know.

Here it is:

Slip Back

Slip back behind the words
Behind the I and the He and the Should
Find the stillness, the quiet calm
Be there without judgment
Without thought even

Slip back

Slip back

Slip back behind the words
Behind the Why and the What and the Who
Find the silence, the all and nothing
Be there watching
Only watching

Does anyone else out there do this sort of thing?
