Defying gravity becomes increasingly difficult as you grow older or get out of shape, whereas in our fleet-footed youth we feel we could touch the stars when we're ecstatic. Good poem!
You have juat painted the perfect picture of the heart and soul of the poet. Excellent!
Cheers,
Dan

A spiritual pleasure to read.
"Tumbling Toward Ecstacy" a true joy to partake
Not only are the words beautiful but based on truth.
"...The higher our spirits fly
The more our flesh conspires
to bring us down to earth..."
Linda,
You question and confront our very nature and essence, not an easy thing to do in any form, but you do it with confidence and authority...and knowing, yes knowing. This is from deep within and is a true joy to read.

I truly like the plain open format of this...the lay it on the line message that some so easily tend to ignore. Well done and look forward to reading more of your work in the future.
... certainly NOT peri-menopausal angst, Linda!!!! Your evocative and highly perceptive comments are unisex, it seems to me... or do I mean bi-sexual???!! :)) I think your perspectives so deftly and artistically scribed are absolutely WONDERFUL and unique in expression, but absolutely spot on. You capture the wondering, wanderlust and waywardness of the poetic temperament with great aplomb here. I would feel privileged to be thought of in these ways. Thank you! :)) xx
This combined narrative dialogue and play is about the uncreated, unborn and undying transcendent Self of God-consciousness and Buddha-nature. It describes an odyssey of transcendent Consciousness Awakening and Remembrance.

The art of exploration. This is life at it's best.
After all, once you have reached the top what can you do?
Great write,

A poet must explore to find truth... or at
least a balance for hope!

these lines from a poem I have yet to post:
We are antecedent
of the past we fashinoned and seldom
comprehend, touchstone to a future
anticipated in our genes....
-gene.
Great write!...ET
