Intermediate Awareness
beyond the stony walls
of the immediate
a space where gods transcend
their bestial heritage
minds that see
without eyes
a dimly forming vision
of a formless world to come
hearts that touch
without hands
reach toward the horizon
of a sunless dawn
intangible made real
reality made complete
what we are
we will walk through walls
and fly wingless
on the currents of a dream
