The Human Condition


this fragile existence

containing all this power

propelling us into eternity


how glorious this creation

this beautiful existence

conscious of being alive


this joyous celebration

enduring sorrow and pain

creating loving kindness


how tumultuous enlightenment

this journey of pleasure and pain

creating gifts of joy


this life of awareness

which is greater than one

overwhelmed by all


how triumphant is knowledge

seeking inner peace

confronting chaos


this magical mystery

which is nothing but everything

this life of eternity


how traditional is the ordinary

among mere mortals

seeking the glory


oh, to suffer the human condition


(c) D.E. Clark

A quite brilliant encapsulation, Dale. My goodness... where to start? I wouldn't have a clue, but you give us both the breadth and the detail, the magnitude and the intense preciousness of what it means to be uniquely and universally human... and on-going from the beginning on into no end. You weren't under the Swiss Alps at the weekend were you... as part of the team investigating The Big Bang... this poetry feels like it, yet with a delightful human parallel. Love this, thank you! And GOING you most certainly are, too... positively hotwheels, I'd say! :)) Kate xx
