Haiku Monday - Bear/Bare

.
.
Rafael is up with theme and notations.  Quite the thing, more so for some of us suffering from associated notions most recently.  Some suffering, however, is quite sweeter than other suffering, mind you.  Just a little suffering?  Father heard.  Never the worry.  Yes, yes, I put a few up instantly.  And yet, I hope to... square this circle more... directly.  It is easy to go base.  But some things are important enough to work into the sublime.  For me, this is one of those.  Blessings should be treated honorably, to my mind.
clothed in cloth ~ naked
in spirit ~ walk as Adam -
dressed in splendor
-------------------
bare or draped, the body
is of flesh - scent and form all -
see through the nonsense
-------------------
all the children wear,
truly, is an ego mask
naked to seers
-------------------
nudity nixed
if truly mine always free
need not eyes to see
-------------------

without the shadows
in the broadest of knowledge
suffer the full truth
-------------------

  1. Are you the wolf in sheep's clothing?

  2. Of course, at times. Which wolf is another question altogether. It is not just me, however. Introduce me to a wolfless sheep and I will show you a good costume. Only one, in all of history, has been a true Lamb, two actually as the other was His mother, though filled (given) grace, not of grace itself. I am simply more aware than most even dare to choose to be about our predicament.

    Not to say some aren't better at ameliorating their condition, mind you. Many, perhaps most, especially when counting our histories. Some do it through a right ignorance, though I wouldn't recommend that save in a form of metaphysical "laboratory". Others do it through simple living, or great prayer and faith reading, or such. I have met masters, just none that were perfect. Takes a sinner to know a sinner, it does.

    Wow! You's ain't messing around, huh?

    Absence of bare, bares much indeed. Very nice... all of them:D

  4. I'm probably a bit odd. I believe them. I wasn't sure I wanted to write the last one... or present it. Aw well.

    Glad you saw something in there.
