Beyond what is
possible
one irrefutable mystery
existing
Beyond what was
there
one not so distant
here
Beyond all that
fear
leaping beyond death
living
Beyond profound change
stagnating
one ordinary mind
imitating
[Note: The photo is of a piece of fossil Baltic Amber containing a Pseudoscorpion (with 2 mm body) and a Gnat; the Pseudoscorpion is posed as if attacking the Gnat as prey. This amber is around 50 million years old. Pseudoscorpions (and Gnats) continue to exist worldwide, even in cold climates, like in the United States and Canada. Are “mostpeople” — who tend to live ordinary (so-called) lives, who merely exist accepting (and copying) the commonplace values, routines, and perceptions — stagnating (almost as if they are imbedded in rock-like amber)? You decide.]
