Witnessing Soul

Witnessing Soul

A Poem by Alfred Kukitz
"

in the dark

Witnessing Soul

They were dithering
Ambling about as though lost at sea
They liked the feeling
When an opening arrived they ignored it
Moving deeper into the sad darkness
Upon them came empty souls
Their own souls dangling like odd beings
all amiss, quiet, without a blessed scent among them
The searchers quietly gathered around themselves
with nothing to say or do
Some can witness there essence in the stupidity of their own minds.

Many people walk through the world blind to all around them. I would think that their souls would be empty. Valentine

Your last line says it all. Do we not all try to be the witnessing soul to our conditioned mind and find our real self.

Many empty souls out there, ego monsters.

Great piece of writing.

Many searchers in life, many empty souls, many stupid minds. But, they are still searching for themselves and their true identities. We get to know many of them and we get to share with them. An excellent write, Alfred...:).................

Lost at sea is the perfect simile for those lacking heart and soul. He/she is like the incomprehensible sea. 'Essence in the stupidity'. we never see it in ourselves.

Some people thrive on being miserable. They do not see the "opening" because they WANT to remain miserable. They do nothing to change their situations....except complain. Interesting write, Al. Lydi**
