Now

A Regrets for the Deep Listening Reception
I am looking at a strange messsages
Accumulating during the three months away
From people all over the world

And a few mystical messages remain
From Louis Meji about Mayan predictions
From Pilar off to Egypt
From Evangelists flocking to Israel

But what about
Oct. 4 Ramadam and Rosh Hashanah
The same date, never ever before
Where do I fit into this maelstrom?
Out for a walk
My own quiet woods to the post office.
Peace and quiet exist amid
Tall trees, dead trees
Mushroom on old trees
New growth on new trees
Nature existing in its own darkness
Quietly in chaos and self organizing systems
And what is happening in the heavens?
Scientists now ponder strings, super strings
and even M-Theory in effort to find
Unified Theory of Origin of Universe
Witten of Princeton Advanced Studies says
Its all Magic, Mystery, and Matrix
And now he adds Muck
Somehow all connected
They know not how or why
Solomon says:
There are no meanings
Just find what your hand can do
And do it with all your heart and soul
