IT’S A GOOD THING: <br />Original 10 22 2009 <br /> <br /> <br />It’s a good thing -the Holy Ghost in the bosom <br />Head free -thinking tempers the magic of imagination <br />But ghost figures stand horizon high pictured as torsos <br />Of souls shining logic tubes around the neuron console <br />Of the mind -all lit up blinking halo light downcast <br />On alien conscience marrow –It’s a good thing. Why <br />Are you doubting? The excitation in the lower limbs <br />React to the buttons of local memory –below dark <br />Margins ill defined pillars stand immobile imitating <br />The leg work of hope that takes us to where the <br />Absolute is native and the sovereign is foreign <br />My personal love for the bliss promised follows me <br />Like my shadow -stalks me in my conscience tells <br />Me it is God and this awareness leaves no space no <br />Time for me or need to travel –It’s a good thing indeed.<br /><br />Lee B.
