Ambitious Grasp of Finite Fingertips

I try to clear my mind
but I cant help but worry
so many self same souls

all identical to my own
all are bleeding
all in need of

a higher humanity
and what offerings
of higher value

have I?

save words and gestures
of sympathy
sympathy stemmed

form the same shared sadness
how lonely the spirit
of the earth must be

material mindset
but a gravitational boundary
no sense in living and loving

with limiting notions
marginalized by possession
separation fear and death

so strip my life down to the very
bare bones of beauty
leave me nothing of my own

to pocket save life's
all enduring laughter
may I find life's true treasures

hidden in those empty
open handed offers
silences light reassurance

friendships humble fortune
a smiles simple pleasure
to touch upon

the passive strength
powering all being
to channel ceaseless

charity and compassion
mystic gleam unseen
resting within beyond

all material
non material things
immanent is untouched by

ambitious grasp of language's
finite fingertips
