Connecting the dots

Charles Fields II 1955 (Fort Bragg, NC)

In the collective sense of our experience
Every individual interaction

past/present/future
Parts of this living theatre

all plusses minuses
exposing the living footprint

The full potential of all
of what might come to be
with insight and wisdom,
greater sense of being,

Surveying the intricate complexities
of space/time.  Of every sense of being
Which might ever have come to be…

The sum of all our experience
Teaches us many things

From who we are…

To who are we ?
