Poem Artwork

Time is an illusion

Invisible to all

But the blind

Whose seventh sense

Of the fourth dimension

Illuminates the contradictory path

To the realities of this existence thus

While it is possible that

Seeing is believing

It is also possible that

Seeing is not believing

And that not seeing is believing

While not seeing is not believing

However since believing is believing

And believing is purely faith

It follows

That faith is blind

And time’s illusion

Is before us

Very helpful advice. I know quite a few going through life blind-sided.

Reading this poem blindfolded doesn't get more insightful! (LOL)

This is a really good piece of work! Definitely has Confucius undertones. I can hear the drums of Ginger Baker.

Peace,

Oh nice twist of words. Sometimes it is better to see without seeing to grasp the reality and truth...

Be always safe,

Wow, what are they putting in your water way out there in the desert? Very deep thinking there, my friend. Almost sounds like some kind of a Abbott and Costello routine.

Tinkering in such deep thoughts, produces just more of the same and proofs nothing in the end, but it is most entertaining as you have shown. Bless you! Jasmin Horst

A great poem - However, for me I believe REASON is the strongest foundation of Faith

Reviewed by Sage Sweetwater
Reviewed on June 1, 2010
The illusion becomes reality in scripture - a generous man will prosper; he who refreshes others will himself be refreshed (Proverbs 11:24-25) so essentially, living by Blind Faith is a time-honored gift to mankind. The Native Americans put faith in their medicine men shaman and holy women showing that faith is necessary in order to get something desired. Blind Faith to me, is following the inner voice even though it contradicts what others expect. There's some Confucianism here sprinkled with a physical presence of time which we attend...subsequent poetry that gives way to a world in perpetual motion, Patrick.

Love,
Sage
