Calibrating Consciousness

A Poem by AprilRN1210

journey of sorts

“Your vision will become clear only when you look into your heart. Who looks outside, dreams. Who looks inside, awakens.”

-Carl Jung

Calibrating Consciousness

……..cognizance

-frayed at the seam

Wrestling Reality

shackled by…..

weights of this plane.

Limping on a Lifeline

….Past Perpetual Puzzles

Only…. Just….Juggling

cathartic Karmic troubles.

Fear Interfering

…..with its worries

Frustration Fracturing

whether or not I’m worthy.

Feelings Reeling

….dealing

with a new perception

Sense of direction

………a reflection

of heart full of questions.

Author's Note

Haven't written in so long, guess my spirit decided it was time to share again. I have been on a journey discovering my own spirituality and purpose so to speak, so this mirrors what is in my heart right now.

The Rock And Roll Cowbo..

Ahh yes human nature at its best.... overthinking things, fearing things that don't exist and wondering what life is about. You describe it perfectly. I see you haven't lost your poetic touch.

Thank God you are back. The quote and the poem are both spiritual and true. We are all on this journey trying to find answers and unlocking secrets within and without. It is all in the right balance between the spiritual and the physical without extremes on both sides. When we are centered, happy with our selves, achieving little things for our good and others, full of love and hope, our lives are much meaningful and purposeful.
We are all glad you are back...:)...............

April, so frigging great to read you again. I guess it's true then the world is still spinning.... seems like a lot of journeys are going on these days, people looking at their plane of existence, scratching their head and saying, WTF how and why did we get here and here is pretty unkarmic right now. .. one thing I know is we, the vast majority of people on the planet did not cause this and looking only inside each of us will never get us to solving this or even the fears and questions of our worthiness... you my long lost and now found friend are more than worthy.... look at the wonderful poetry and piece of you that you are sharing with the rest of us... so I say welcome back April. wait is that clapping I hear and music? It's a welcoming party!!! Damn woman you have been missed
