What To Do?

 

What is there to do

when you find yourself

groping,

without realizing,

until the Voice on the still wind,

(the overcharged, stale air) 

leads you to find

the words of the prophet

that say we all do this,

"We grope along the wall like blind men,
We grope like those who have no eyes;
We stumble at midday as in the twilight,"

and you let out a sweet breath of release.

At the end there is hope,

a covenant that won't depart.



What do you do

and how do you begin

to live again

when you realize

that it is guilt,

it is shame,

that are the wrong ways,

the harmful rays

that need to go away;

NOT you,

or your life.

What do you do

when down is up

and up is down,

and you realize

what you have always really wanted to do

is slide down waterfalls

and drink rainbows,

happily -

and

happy -

that is what you have

always wanted

to be.
 



Adding this Sara Groves song, after realizing the words
"Sometimes this has left me groping in the darkness,

hoping in the darkness, I will run into you again,"

were contained in it.

"So I'll turn my back to the black and fall;

and pray for the mystery to rise up and meet me..."
