INTO EINGMA OF THE NIGHT

Into Enigma of the night
We search, and darkness flows
Beautiful as stars in heavenly wonder,
Scratch at insides of our skulls,
So wonderful if life. And the boat at sea
Floats in stillness with vast madness
Of blueness all around. The ocean,
Sky, total water, love,
Music in the swirling abyss
So bright, cutting edges of eternity;
Making love in unison with
The flowing soul of eternity,
Inward as the true purple
Love of senses to internal joy;
There at last the beauty burns
Fire, intense into the universe
That knows nothing – mere mind
Is nothing within this.
Sublime, infinity folding itself
Into ecstasy!
Now, you are eternity
Of a drop in all totality!
Now, when all is deep as sleep,
Now, because the psyche bursts,
Now, nothing disturbs this burst
Of everythingness. All rests,
And we upon the purple flower
Live, and see Reality
Because the world has stopped killing
Our souls.
