Astral Sound

the stillness, the quiet

the state of newly awake

now listen, listen deeply to

the surround-sound

that the astral does make

don’t name it or try to tame it

it simply exists

focus on the resonance

and how it persists

the waves and the raindrops

the winds and the birds

sounds so much nearer

than the astral that’s heard

listen, listen – listen and observe
