18th contemplation of desire 1/21/16

For when we are desire, we are:

an accomplice to the soul

in a inner screenplay reading.

We are a protagonist to self-consciousness,

that learns by teaching.

We are seeds in the mind,

rooting and sprouting towards intimate disclosures.

We are a multi-sensating replicator

for spirit bounding into lifetime roles.

Desire is a better teacher

than illness, failure, or tragedy.

Desire can be the godfather

behind all of our dramas.

Desire has franchised religion

for a percentage of all of the emotional action.

Desire may be an invitational viscosity

to that which has been formless.

Where we, left to normal vices, are entertained,

desire is intrataining.

For when we are desire first hand,

latent is this reclusive truth,

yet mystical the bond.

The ceaselessly sinuous serpent

of self-recognition is molting

the sensory skin of desire’s ever-advance . . .
