~ MY EARTHLY TOPCOAT ~
Awaken, the third eye,
Man's vestigial light organ,
And the universe
Will whisper her secrets...
Life does
The bravest test,
For there is true bravery
In growing older,
And a power in the magic
Of generations passing
(seemingly)
In the blink of an eye.
The true privilege
Is in being alive itself
And recognizing
The horizon's point of view,
Looped
In translucent circles
Connecting
The me and the you,
The past and the present
Of all existence,
To the inert
And the volcanic
Where,
The soul moves steadily forward
Helping to create
Entire worlds anew
With DNA
(human to alien)
Leaving other worlds behind
No dates nor persons,
No rituals or special standing,
The spirit
Recognizing the brilliance
Of the third eye,
Of and in
The light
That exists
Between,
All forms of life...
Oh sweet spirit
Awaken
The third eye,
Man's vestigial
Light organ,
For the universe beckons
In its most
Enigmatic voice...
And so,
I remove
My earthly topcoat,
And place it
(ever-so gently)
Across my body,
Of ever evolving
Stars...
Tony Taylor

Wow Tony this is a stunning delve into the rhythmic cycle of life and the power of the third eye. I felt a contentment in this piece. Where one had awakened to the understanding of how our souls are all combined within the energy of the universe itself. An ever cyclical movement that we all play a part in, as the journey of existence continues to evolve through time and space. A truly beautiful unfolding / unraveling of the nature of existence
and I waffle lol so will end on a BIG thank you for sharing this top notch piece

My Dear Brother Tony,
As usual, you have knocked the ball out of "The Universe" with your esoteric eyesight into the Soul of Mankind! You have taken me to the stars and back, strengthening my belief in the hereafter.
If anyone deserves the publishing of a book of his poetry, it is you.
All my love to a poetic Soulmate,
