Light

Meditation posture

in the kickback chair

legs crossed, knees up

at two a.m.

what's going on in there?

Rub away those shivers

body very rude

talking about bodies!

this one is really screwed.

Chair goes back, offers the roof

a better view above 

where are we going late?

please not the attic cove.

Light is in, beside, behind

everywhere it is

this the thought that occupies

the mind bebops within.

Heals a person anytime

can change a mountain top

Light is like the basic thing

where is it?  "I" looks up.

Fascinating occupation

in the darkness 

cheers! Focused on

esssential stuff

where do we go from here?

Look for all the cheeriness

the golden boughs, the sage

choirs with a healing touch

My Lord and the next page.

Nothing! So we go along

electric  bolts within

stiffness in the elbows

head drooping, chest fallen.

Just behind the thought

a bit, hang up the I.D.

darkness, let me cut a slit

peek beneath disease.

Every day for thirty years

I signed up just for this?

Yes! He whispers happily

and I am gathered in.
