THE PROMISE

1st lesson it's not about you but it will be when it counts ... 2nd lesson it's not magic magic is taken and this is given ... it's more about talking ... you do most of it but you get a good answer when you need it ... it's not like counting to three and then saying presto ... it's like opening your eyes to the truth and finding out that you're not alone but there's someone there with you nobody can see ... not a disturbing my god what was that ... but a passing nod of hello are you here then ... in the space of two rooms you promise what to do ... from blue to yellow to white eyehurting light ... but not your eyes ... you're sitting down to write ... this is a very mellow hope ... it means you can stop trying at least for now ... trying ... trying all life generally is and fighting lots of fighting ... trying to be clever ... but this perhaps tomorrow this will be delusion ... whose is it to last ... not the point point of order ... the point here is not trying ... nor rash or in any way a burden ... not a gall and bitter to the tongue ... thin as a wafer light as a cloud ... who knows what blessing it will bring
