WHAT HAPPENED
I felt more than a twinge. maybe a shove
Forward toward bliss when I thought of decline
I listened and heard all the wonders rehearsed
And now wide awake there is no trace of curse
2
No sign of old stuff dragging me down
No sign of negative specters emerging
Only the unexplained presence of bliss
Perfectly plain I can feel what it is
3
Bliss is the first word, the second is joy
The third word’s freedom, the last word is love
Taken together they complete a square
Telling us Heaven is now everywhere
4
And if that is true, all the bad stuff is done
Whatever it was we now stand as released
Surrounded by language beyond all past fights
Transforming the now into endless delights
5
What happened? Nothing, nothing at all
A realized fantasy, gone with the wind
Leaving a signpost of permanent power
Read it and heed it, embrace the new Hour
