There can be no Life

None of this makes sense

It is so cold and so unlike LOVE

The heart is clamped shut

A cast of iron is wrapped around the only hope of salvation

For without Love

their can be no life

Vultures eat carcasses

living off the dead

and those that are most vulnerable

Living in the past

dying in the now

What hope is there for life

Sustained by artificial breathing devices ...

Narcoleptics walking in a steady stream of programmed response

No chance of individual life sustaining breath

The plug is pulled before there is even a glimpse of what the heart has come to know

The breath stops before it begins

Death becomes Life

Vultures reappear

picking off no-thing at all

The heart no longer beats

For where there is no Love

There can be no breath

The vulture knows as it devours the last remains of that which never was...

Their can be no life

without love...

 

Ananda 5/25/05
