dialogue

[mtmynd]

dialogue

postulating the 'nothing'
leads to confusion
when 'nothing' is explained
without first explaining
that explanations lead to
dialogue

dialogue is the
path of communications
that begins with a
breath followed
by utterances
gurgling from the
throat

these sounds indicate
the image residing
within each of us

how we grope
how we struggle
to define these
thoughts
replies
ideas
concepts
theories
religions
philosophies
politics
phobias
neuroses
...

answers
upon answers
massaging our
questions into
reasoning
rationalizations
psychologies
remedies
guesses

to satisfy the mind
requires tricks
moments of illusion
to befuddle
to confuse
to fool
to redirect
to interconnect

so the train will
ride softly on
the tracks
the rails
the tales
made up
and spoken with
honesty
integrity
openness
kindness
compassion

even though
"we only tried"
becomes
the truthfulness
of where we see
where we have been
where we have been
where we have been

is not here
hear
is not here
unless past
is where we're at

get passed the past

visit the past
introduce your self
learn the past
but don't become
the past

be now
after being in
the past

the past".
