Love Made Tangible

A small snippet from my labour of love play:  The Wino, The Witch and The Writer.

This is an abridged version of Love Made Tangible

If there is nothing more, then we are nothing more. We are nothing!

 How can it be anything else?

How can it be just an overwhelming collection of stuff? A walk in a Forrest of Fear.

Will I lose this?  Will I miss this?  Will I not be well?

What if? Oh, how I despise what if’s!

 The party is wonderful until the money and wine run out. When the body screams no more and the mind is mangled and twisted in knots of guilt and apprehension. Fear that tomorrow will be something, something other than what we directed. And it will, for we have no control.

No control over the weather, over the elements. No control over the unexpected events.  

 Them, those people that ruined it, those people who did not walk and behave as they were directed, expected. They should have known better, they should have listened, they should have followed our lead.

 How can it be anything else? If there is nothing more than why bother?

Why care how I got stuff?

Why care who I hurt, because you said it was wrong?

If there is nothing more, then tomorrow is nothing but another day to gather more stuff.

Another day to blame “them”.

If there is nothing more, then life is a race shaped by past and future years and not as present and eternal.

 NO! I am alive and I am a brilliant energy!

I am dizzy with a desire to touch and breathe and see and taste.

I am alive and I will to give this gift of all gifts the honour it deserves.

I am alive and I can take each mind-altering emotion and immerse my soul into its lesson.

I am alive and my goal, of all goals, beyond any possession or moment of fame fortune and glory, beyond all else is to embrace Love.

To embrace, know, be, give, immerse and lie in this thing called Love.

I am alive and while I have this gift of life on earth,

I am Love made tangible.
