Our nested lives: prompt
To The Winter Solstice
Addressing a poem to a manifestation of wisdom
So, Winter Solstice, what did you say?
Are we de-coding you, or we just sway?
You are not just a random happening.
You have a meaning that’s uncovering
a truth known since (for) ever.
We have to stop saying “whatever!”.
The biggest night is not a coincidence.
It is part of a great cycle of evidence.
Within the dark, we work for the light
to serve it, to “make” it bigger before the “eye”.
And look! From now on every day,
it triumphs again over the imbalance “misplay”.
The daytime starts to be extended,
until the equinox we intended.
Daytime and nighttime will have equal duration;
an equilibrium’s re-creation.
It’s not exactly a competition;
it is a “going to non-division”.
When Easter comes, or whatever one calls it,
there is the freeing, a victory; all these symbolic.
It’s not only a matter of Christianity.
Christ was one of those who found it;
the fact, the purpose, the commingling
of self’s merging into Self-being,
the personality’s liberation
from its own asphyxiation.
When dark and light come into the balancing,
they serve each other to demolish the fallacy,
for us to see that we need both,
if we intend to find our inner god.
When we’ll demolish our ego,
we’ll see we needed this procedure
for the divine substance in us
to have the space to be realized…
