Let It Be

Let It Be

A Poem by roarke
"

Prose about something...

"

Let it be, means no expectations. 

There are no caveats between right and wrong.

Skill and knowledge are half-measure without understanding and compassion. 

When Logos manifested, communication diluted.

Antithesis: Set against place 

Place: a point in a dream

Set Against: a duality

dream duality: nightmare

awaken, breathe, see. 

Let It Be

More prose poetry... haven't written any on WC for, oh, ten years... might be another ten years before I attempt it again. Critiques and comments welcome.

there is such a thin gray line, or maybe a thick gray line between right and wrong.

Universally people want that clear cut division...black and white....
but matters are not that simple...and when people live with expectations of life being perfect,
full of clear choices....Good luck with that.

I only understand about half of this . . . the part that's crystal clear & obvious. I'm catching the heartbeat of how it can be when two can come together, not wanting something from one another, not expecting the union to make them complete, but just to enjoy however that other person may be manifesting at any given moment. In short, expectations suck (((HUGS))) Fondly, Margie

Your last five lines holds the answers.. perhaps. Or are they statements speaking out, defying argument!
Considering the quote 'to each his own', is there a right and wrong in life.. other than murder, treason or utter indifference to both the former?

You might not write poetry, but oh my, can you write non.prose! Good to see you here after so long.
