A Monastery of my own mind – Delhi Poetry Slam

A Monastery of my own mind

By Viren Desai

Images- I can get lost in
Soul-roaming
Edge to edge
Spirit dancing
Light to light
Edge of eternity
Emptiness to emptiness
A Monastery of my own mind

Textures to be touched
Light to be felt
Visions to be seen
An exploration of insight
From the doors of an image
To the portals of heaven
Just a monastery
A Monastery of my own mind

Fluttering butterflies
Roar of pigeon wings
Flight of the pelicans
Euphoria of freedom
From the doors of an image
To the portals of Heaven
A monastery of my own mind

A journey unknown
Realms of emptiness
Floating textures and
Streaks of Light
Step wedges of reality
Small steps at a time
Glimpses of an outer world
A journey unknown
Just a monastery
A Monastery of my own mind
Peace, quiet, solitude,
The strength of vibrations
Echo to echo
Empty frames tacked on the wall
Hanging on to ride the waves of the mind

But where???
A monastery of my own mind
