the air of elsewhere


there is a call
there’s beauty deep
for which I’ll fall
for which I’ll weep
it’s hidden there
in realms unknown
that secret share
unseen unshown

in moments rare
in visions sweet
I’ve travelled there
that hope to meet
in brief delight
then I would find
that fairest flight
of fleeting kind

it’s drawn me on
to realms concealed
I’ve often gone
to yonder field
and seeking for
that blessed somewhere
to find it’s in
the air of elsewhere

now

now

unyesterday me
rid me
of my stale certitude
detomorrow me
of the idols of my fear
oh for the deep joy
of nowness
what shall I eat?
what shall I wear?
clothe me
with the wonder
of this moment
feed me
with the mystery
amaze me
let me be lost
in your
I-amness
