When the stars shine
they erase some illusion
and even the mystical
is included in this universe.
Too new to remember.
Too old to forget.
And yet, we do forget
to observe, to shine,
and reflect, and remember.
This is all illusion.
Our fabricated universe
is an assault on the mystical.
Is the wonder of the mystical
what we need to forget?
To appreciate the universe
in which we too shine,
what is the illusion?
Do we choose to remember?
Why would we remember?
We shroud ourselves in a mystical,
masterful illusion.
Is it time to forget
we were created to shine
and illuminate the universe?
It is only the universe,
a Source we must remember in order to shine.
To reflect the mystical
we must forget
the illusion.
A long dream is our illusion.
It exists outside the universe
where we forget
to remember
our mystical
shine.
Awaken from the illusion to remember!
The universe is our marker in the mystical.
Don’t forget to shine.
I really like this. The word play really works.
Thanks! It was my first sestina. I just picked some words I liked and rolled the round.
