The Seeds of a New Awareness

MINDLESS

The mind is valued,
The intellect impresses,
For beliefs are ideas ingrained,
For literary prowess,
Scholarly delivery,
Is the vehicle that carries reputation.

When one is in the mind,
One loses heart,
When one is in the heart,
One loses the mind,
For the heart is emotional intelligence,
The mind is rational intelligence,
But what is rational?
When it is calculating,
What is emotional?
When it is feeling,
For this is the language of the soul,
The former defines ones role,
The latter re-fines the soul,
One buoys a sea of ideas,
The other creates the glee of joy.

How can one navigate the sea of life?
If one cannot feel the breeze?
One cannot sense the tide,
For it is turning my friends,
For to blend one with the other,
Sends a flare,
For this is a warning,
Global warming is heating up,
Growth is overheating,
Thermal lines,
Renew grid lines,
Forming an unstable matrix of our own making.

I think therefore I am,
I am therefore I think,
Therefore I am,
I,
…What is thinking?

When one moves beyond the grid,
When one moves between the lines,
There is no-one,
To talk to,
For the one is many,
The many is one,
It is one-self,
The self is not what you think,
You can feel it,
When you know you are not yourself.

Philosophy is the knowledge of art,
Awareness is the art of knowledge,
And when one moves beyond what one knows,
The great artist strokes the pallet,
For inspiration is the colour that is painted,
Repetition is the patterns parroted,
For when a new picture is designed,
A new way re-aligns,
A self portrait,
The surreal becomes the real self,
for it is un-real.

I have observed behaviour,
I have listened to argument,
I have witnessed inaction,
Behind the performance of rhetoric,
For all is prehistoric,
For this is primitive man,
Pretending to evolve,
So simple in preoccupation,
Advancing in technology,
Regressing in ecology,
Biology sends chemical messengers,
But is the message received?
That survival is not of the fittest.

There is a new type of creed,
A natural selection,
That seeds a new awareness,
It is the genotype,
That self regulates,
For it is a self organizing system,
It is the system of the Self,
That is the prototype,
A spiritual evolution,
Replacing redundant greed with healthy seeds,
Off-shoots from the tree of knowledge,
That emerges by stealth,
As William Tell splits the apple,
And governance re-emerges,
from the grass roots.
