Leaving My Past
We part as friends, at least not enemies
The crimes I committed to make her happy
Have made us both rich, yet in hiding
From bad people, who do not want me to leave
The life I have lived, my role as a thief
And all-around criminal — No matter how
I justified what I did, I know it was wrong
So now I am trying to make up for lost time
I give Helen half of what I have hidden away
The rest to my family and friends — Atonement
She keeps the other treasures I gave her, but I can always
Find more — The quest and journey are half of the prize
Medicine that can heal the world and restore balance
The Message, or one of many — All times and yet only one
Mythic Dreamtime — The ever expansive present moment
Echoes of the past and future, all happening now, then
The churning of the cosmic ocean, the ordering of the universe
The birth of stars, our star, planet Earth, the moon
All these things in the stories of our world’s mythologies
Retelling them, we recreate those holy moments, the one moment
Our perspective and perception includes that of the outside looking in
Our beautiful and expanding physical universe of billions of stars
Organized in patterns of eternity — Spirals, circles, fractals
Holographic mandalas within mandalas — Worlds within worlds
Universes of light and darkness, connected yet separate from our own
The cosmic ocean of all life, containing all possibilities and universes
Hierarchy of organization bringing order out of chaos and back again
The cosmic drama of eternal conflict, yet also resolution of opposites
The mythic time of coming together between left and right — The Lovers
Only once yet again and again, the eternal moment of initiation
Into the mysteries of the universe and worlds of light and darkness
Beyond our own world — The beauty of nature everywhere, yet nowhere
As sweet as home, wherever we feel our heart to be — Here or there
Planet Earth — A global community of races, species, philosophies
We must work together in a natural way — The way the ancients have left
The many ways that are one, towards one destination and source
