    no refuge

     Never knowing words ,gone once they were said . At last the moment passed and all is over and lost. A lotus beacon sounds overhead and you hear your name called from the many, and your heart swells up with dread. For you know you won't be the last to be called upon this path. This is not an ending just the beginning of the end of your souls path along the lost looking glass.   You feel it cut like a knife and they say your name like a curse. Your next in line for all the torment that comes with that call of your name; from the elders and from the path that has no end.   Blood ringing in your ears , your heart pounding the rain overhead the only sound you hear that's not within you. Though the sounds within you scare you more than the sound of the rain outside , pitter pattering on the ground.

    Jen omg your use of words to form the imagery this poem takes on is right on spot. You penned an excellent piece of artwork here dear one. The talent just keeps pouring out of you *Bravo* and so very well done I can't wait to read more and an artistic 10 from me for this one. Well done!!!!!

    Very interesting poem. Shades of the Tao? I like the metaphor - Blood ringing in your ears. I certainly, will give this work a high rating.

    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.
