Ancestors Dancing


***


Ancestors dancing


echoes faded 


surrender 


Life 


love 


fought and struggled 


no landing 


blurred into one  


origin a black hole 


executioner 


defied the gods 


faces and names


demons 


Born 


kiss the sky 


past faded 


landing 


Heard 


Slithering beneath the tide 


planets stars lined up 


Endlessly 


egg cracked 


breaking away 


one day


sun memories 


Nothing believed real 


Sun did not rise 


No dawn 


upthrough springs frost 


trace 


placeless place 


Surrendering 


forgot the dream 


vision lost to time 


Tried holding on 


free fall 


time


Collapsed

Now that I have realized my life is just a dream am wondering what comes next, or if there is a "next." Maybe I will keep looking a little more to be sure no self is to be found. The way things are going I might end up a Buddhist. Now not only can I not find myself, I can't find anyone else either.  I close ...
