RISING ABOVE: EXTRATERRESTRIAL WISDOM


II   FIRST CONTACT



FIRST CONTACT

we're here   we're you   we're one
walls don't matter   space and time
they're illusion   this instant is all--
crackling with branches and stars!

we signal within you   outside you
we meet   beneath trees   by night
from the sky   while you dream us
look  see  listen  hear  sleep  wake

your mask face must go   remove it
let your false voice hush in silence
we're the emissaries of what's real
break open your being!  receive us!

to death we're birth  to the divided
we're whole   although few can see
to the blind we're sight   to the lost
we're shining--beacons to your soul

"fear not" say angels   and we echo
fear not!   we're your highest selves
intimate strangers   shadow friends
the holy secret you've always known

STARRY NIGHT

     mystery and majesty   the whole night sky strewn with stars   a shoal of diamonds!   if you cherish no vision of something profound and eternal expanding outward forever   what will happen to your body made of star-stuff?   or your soul--that wormhole to the Infinite?   gaze up in awe!   we come from there   and there is everywhere   as above so below   as without so within

     all true teachers have but a single truth to teach   however veiled   you and the universe are One!   there is no separation   the Big Bang itself  explodes at your core!   how much damage is done when you don't allow for sheer consciousness pervading every atom   how far you stray from home when you sever communion with your Source   we show the way to heal this self-alienation

     strangers will visit you   let them in   guides will arrive wearing unseemly disguises   grant them welcome   what you think you know is what you don't know   who you think you are is someone else   your head needs to bud wide open--a night-blooming cereus  your heart needs to melt like pond ice next spring   real meanings glimmer in out-of-the-way corners where nobody expects to find them   or gleam like multi-colored Easter eggs hidden in plain sight

     a night will dawn when all the stars finally chime together in one transcendent chord   then the lost and lonely with be found and beloved  the broken outcasts will be hugged and accepted  the smallest and meekest will be elevated on high  didn't you start to dance even before you were born?   never forget the steps you learned when first you joined that Divine Intoxication!
