Feeling Transparent, Nearer to Forever

the more I try to be some part of things
the more transparent I feel
I feel.

so many things.
transparency being foremost.
this has been going on for some time

out of Time I mean to say, beyond Time.
perhaps it is knowing Spirit is paramount
the undying heart that doesnt read the news

feeling apart in that sense is correct.
on all the tests about transcendence.
turning the dial on a time machine that is aging

and then not.
what have I forgot what did I leave on the bus
of the last century

in dreams I ask
unaccountably
and with no records

written in the language of the everyday.
this day.
that holds no familiar spires.

perhaps I feel now closer to God.
now that I am glass.
and can welcome the sun

as though nothing else
ever happened here.
