    Moment by Moment

    Full of Life
    Ready to die
    Telling the Truth
    By living a lie

    Living a dream
    Life running away
    Dreaming another
    Bright, shiny day

    Living the Now
    Now'ing through life
    Piercing the Void
    With a razor sharp knife

    Open your eyes
    And then you will see
    It’s not about you
    And it’s not about me

    It’s not about us
    It’s not about them
    It’s bigger than anything
    We can comprehend

    Everything's false
    And everything's real
    All you can know
    Is all you can feel

    Feeling the Oneness
    Is owning the Vastness
    Of all of the Fullness
    Imprisoned by Nothingness

    The great paradox
    Hides in the rocks
    It's both real and fake
    It's asleep and awake

    At the very same time
    In the very same space
    The ultimate crime
    Is not seeing its face

    It is what is
    It is what it isn't
    It is what will be
    It's perfectly efficient

    Perception is real
    Reality exists
    In those who can feel
    Who refuse to resist

    The temptation of mind
    The delusion of logos
    Overtly sublime
    Enfolded in eros

    We have the power
    To create our own world
    Each minute and hour
    The Hologram's unfurled

    Why are we here?
    What does it mean?
    Is there a "God"?
    Or a cosmic machine?

    Who really cares?
    It doesn't even matter
    As long as we share
    The incessant chatter

    Of connection within
    And connection without
    Connection to something
    Is what life's all about

    Be true to yourself
    And what you believe
    There is no limit
    To what you'll achieve

    Happiness lives
    Inside of our being
    It thrives when it gives
    It dies when it's fleeing

    Open your heart
    So that you can see it
    There you must start
    Before you can be it

    Explode into Now
    And then you will own it
    Creating Existence

    how true...

    The true philosopher and the true poet are one, and a beauty, which is truth, and a truth, which is beauty, is the aim of both.

    Ralph Waldo Emerson, American Poet (1803-1882)

    Desiderius’s Poems (13)
