The Auricles of Oracle
Sound—vibrations traveling
through the breath of consciousness,
the in-breathing and out-breathing
of awareness giving birth to perception,
the emergence of activity actuated
by eternity sequencing itself
into cause and effect,
registering in the auricles
of energetic beings
time sequenced and time suspended.
Existence chopped into durations
of start and stop
of energetic transitions
in planes of light;
of past, present and future
in planes of matter—
birth … living on to death
through a many-act play
called incarnations.
The auricles of flesh and blood
detecting the sounds of a life
echoing through events
through occurrences,
the vibes of life history,
those self-identifying moments
of who we are (we think).
Compelling story
this matter-bonded life,
but a screenplay obscuring
true self and nature,
whose transcendent auricles
hear reality unmodulated
by self-created fable.
Scene One … The End …
Run credits.
Genuine prophecy
is “hearing” the notes
of our factual musical scale,
our recondite nature
vibrating awareness beyond
storybook self-delusions—
delusions driving
the desperate-seeking
t’ward the desperate-seeking
seeking a self-fulfilling prophesy
of their enlightened state.
Joined in psychic entrainment
they speak the back and forth
of pith, practiced aperçus
validating their ascendency.
Then on to teaching
and a new didacticism
for the ages,
aging in time and outer space.
The oracles of time chime
to the tick-tock
of rhythms and rhymes
rearranging themselves in kind
to the inflowing of consciousness,
as the observers of phenomena.
The oracle of inner space is
beyond phenomena,
beyond flows
of counteracting duality,
beyond space gods and beings
and chariots of fire;
beyond calendars, long counts,
monuments and pyramids;
beyond the tick-tock, tick-tock
of worlds coming and going,
of what will be …
or not.
