Soul Absorption

 

 

I never (quite) understood instincts, with a need to tame such. I, too, never understood instant absorption. Some elements might be taken for granted; plus, we need not (over) analyze realities.

(A lasting message where wisdom is unclear, mind of its mind, soul of its spirit.) Asking for graces. Disputing prudence. Asking for what cannot be absorbed.  (Those with letters, writing postscripts, rereading transcripts.) Artisan souls, cavalier over last rites. And one dream!
