What can be timeless folly after the act of it?: A poem 

If I was an immense star reaching out 

in the timelessness; that a geography 

of space exists in a nutshell where every 

magnitude makes another look small    

You can see that a profundity is not alien 

to the tiniest. As much as a magnitude may 

seem without depth. And what would I beget 

if I reached out endlessly? Who brings forth 

the conversation? philosopher or dilettante? 

lover or foe? sacredness or profaneness? 

Is your resoluteness your downfall? Or 

are you too spellbound not to see? Does God 

have to witness his folly after the act of it, out 

of another’s deceit. How does glory become an  

innuendo taken far away from glorification! 

That one must become a shadow of oneself, 

because there were too many shadows 

emitting smokes and mirrors, even as you waited 

patiently, (being straightjacketed in your chair)  

imagining that you were preparing for your throne!

Hi, I am Monte Cyril Rodrigues and live in Melbourne, Australia. I am a retired journalist. I have been diagnosed with schizophrenia. I've had voices and visions all my life. I think it is a spiritual experience, my doctors think otherwise. I am a deeply spiritual person and keep having experiences with otherworldly realms.
