Something

A Poem by Davidgeo

.

anything

i can teach you

everything

so follow me

willing great hazard

do it now

show me your vigor

paint the sky with your purpose

your intuition

let us find things

pressed firm against rock

to the sky

to the bottoms of the oceans

like it was skin

stretched long

against the earth like it's flesh

sans atmosphere

in front of...

nothing

like a series of broken

sentences

before the doll face

until we both really showed up

naked and alone

faced with deadalus

an end

The end,

so show me

show me that thing

show me how to teach us

everything

regardless of anything

so take us

as something different

so teach me

like i am nothing

like purpose is a trade

teach me

anything

hmmm purpose is a trade - yeah interesting

I like what you wrote below about the having to know yourself fully from the inside first and formost - oh god yes everything externally is a mirror. This though - this statement does not seem very mathematical - are you coming over to the Hippie Chick side of things - or, are you about to roll another spliff and explain?

Life is just fine my side ...

A life time is not enough to interpete different aspect of everything. Showing or walking on an obvious path is not a solution, so effort is the key to discovery. And interest in knowing the unknown can be tricky but rewarding
