From this fracture in the Earth,
this gash, this hollow that reaches forever,
this gorge of eternal darkness
I call out
and my voice becomes a symphony,
a choir,
a cacophony
of madness,
an aria of desire…
Listen to my voice
because its echo is bouncing
across mountains
and getting close,
very close to the sea
and the ears of the universe
can hear me…
If there is no forgiveness and forgetting who could survive this ordeal?
Forgiveness…
bliss, elation,
tranquillity,
the well balanced equation
of reality,
understanding what I can’t see,
what I can’t smell,
what I can’t touch,
but what I can trust
more than the knowledge
that after every sunset
proceeds the night
and that after the night
undoubtedly will come the morning.
Freedom is knowing liberation and liberation is a gift, freedom is gained by struggle.
