The Silence Beyond Eden

The Silence Beyond Eden  The sky, dust-laden, wears the stains of ash, while restless souls gather pearls of eternity, yet their hunger remains unsatiated. Frontiers bleed, dreams crumble into ruins, and nameless children inherit an unknown Eden's ashes. Once, your footsteps consecrated the earth, your breath sanctified the wandering winds. Now, iron and fire dictate the fate of spring. Who taught the flowers to fear their blossoming? Perhaps the giants still play their ancient game, moving kingdoms across the chessboard of the earth, while pawns of flesh and blood vanish beneath their shadows. And you remain silent, beyond the ruins of paradise. Is your silence the final mystery of creation, or the permission through which the giants reign?

Boundless Force


 Boundless Force


Time—

unmoored—

drifts from a silence

that never began.

Something within

turns toward it,

as if remembering

a home

never known.

The mind fractures

into distances—

universe after universe—

circles within circles,

naming the unnamed.

Forms flicker—

appear,

withdraw—

like light

hesitating

between being

and not.

No edge holds.

No measure remains.

Only a quiet unfolding—

veil after veil

loosening

over what does not move.

And beneath all passing—

no beginning,

no end—

only

this

boundless force.
