there’s only one player in this game

55

there has been rain in the night
and the earth’s breath
is fresh and fruity this dawn

what am I?

‘I’ is the Knowingness
apperceiving that ‘me’ is not
and only ‘I-ness’ is

intellectual acceptance of this
isn’t difficult;
self thinks it has understood something
and is pleased

but as this savage wisdom percolates down
into the darker layers
something called me
isn’t so happy

the battle of battles begins but
the outcome is inevitable –
winners in every corner
all bets collectable!

turns out there’s only one Player!

    1. Fancy you finding a post from seven years ago! Thank you for leading me back here… it’s always interesting to revisit ‘old’ writing, and my eyes widen in amazement that I wouldn’t change one word… 🙂
