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?

The Unfathomable Current


 The Unfathomable Current

Before time

found its name,

silence

was already listening.

Something unseen

leaned toward that stillness,

as though recalling

a homeland

never entered,

yet never forgotten.

The mind

splinters into immensities—

one universe

giving birth to another,

circles unfolding

within unseen circles,

each seeking

to utter

the unutterable.

Forms awaken,

glimmer,

and dissolve—

like hesitant light

hovering

between presence

and absence.

No boundary endures.

No measure survives.

Only

a patient unveiling,

veil after veil

falling away

from the changeless heart

of existence.

Beneath every beginning,

beyond every ending,

there remains

neither void

nor form—

only

the unfathomable current,

moving

without motion,

the eternal force

from which

all things

rise

and return.
