the sands of time no longer speak in tongues of persuasion an ocean changed in form and sound to swallow thee the dust of silence procreates but fades immediately as i observe the sphinxes vanish in the winds i know his day is nigh i know the night must die revealing lasting peace beyond all fragile woe i feel the void extending i feel the self transcending dimensions falling down beneath the open eye i look around myself and witness dreams and dreams and dreams i am surrounded but untouched by all things ill conceived the strangest forms appear to me in everlasting streams to renew illusion s seed that no thing will ever be relieved void is mind itself and mind itself is void a presence of the absence of will is speaking from beyond the veils of lunacy reminding me of what i am i know the i is falling i know these roots are sprawling for benediction comes through him who is in all i feel them flowing through my veins i feel them slowly breaking chains and reason resignates with unexpected grace receive the silent voice the sound of transformation flame of consciousness flame of knowledge flow through me and pervade my physical body pervade my higher spirit light my path and every step i take so that i am able to guide myself to wander in brightness and with fortitude the mountains of being and the depths of reality and give me the strength to surrender to whatever is and may be with silence and acceptance
