When the answers don’t come

Let go

When the answers don’t come,

you know it’s time to change the question,

she said.

Fuck no!, I replied

When the answers don’t come,

get out of your head.

Don’t seek and plead for answers

just to fill the void.

When the answers don’t come,

let the question remain

a

free floating note.

Let go

of

what you think

you know.

Then be amazed,

you have not disappeared.

In fact, you are still here.

A warm fluid vessel

with a pump at its core.

Tap into the sensations,

the vibrations,

the titillations.

Watch as one microsecond

transitions to another.

Feel the heat of desire

turn

to hollow dread.

Feel the weight of the heavy cloak

thrown over your head.

If the answers don’t come,

Stay with the question

and then let go.

Sit quiet and listen

to the symphony

that plays through you.
