An Arrangement

I choose no intruder to awaken my knowledge.
no vagabond dreamer to enlighten my soul
for the sake of ingenious.

I ask for not a knock on the head
to crack open an understanding
of light that flows endlessly
like a river through the tunnels
of delicate brain waves.

Do not sneak upon my unlikely surrender
when at a moment I am helpless to heal
my devotion to unending glimpses
into an eternal bliss of being.

Without body or mind
Soul deeply enriched with bliss
for the knowing that one can play out
in forgiveness of the blunders

Surprise me only if you can
for I will rise above all
kindred and see the aura of self
as a circle in continuous energy
spinning into eternity.

Great choice of words. Very strong opening that grabs the attention immediately as the topic should. This side of understanding of self that you write about is what you do best I feel. Thanks for sharing a good thing.

You are very eloquent. Leaving mystery and enticement in the poem.

I guess this about two sides of being me. Ego and soul selves combining and intertwining in each momnet.

Why did you use the word 'ingenious'?
Sounds like you two were meant for each other. Your answer above explains why.

I like the style of this, it has a lot of solidity to it, I think it would be superb at a spoken word event. There are some really interesting, striking lines as well. But mostly I like the tone and the theme here. Could be heavier on imagery/concreteness, but I think it's great like it is.
