To Experience The Numinous Is Really Very Easy, Without Sacred Molecules

With practice,
a notion of Sphinx,
a couple of blinks
a dance
and a glance at a sunrise
will do it.

Hi Jess

you have put across the message very nicely in this short write...the way I read it is that for a strong spiritual connection religious beliefs may not be necessary....reads smoothly too... a pleasure read..

Best of you...

in a while! A truly wordy title, but without such, one might have gone off into the sunset and completely misinterpreted the intent as just being a flashback! Sorry, no criticism. ~Gee.

I don't know why but really long titles on really short poems always make me smile.

Brilliant elegance

Hi Jess,
That one I want to hang on my wall. It feels like an open window.
Your poem conveys the thouught and the mood perfectly. The tittle is not needed to my opinion it just says the same in a weird way.
Pleasure to read your new poems.

Do you realize your using the spine allows religion to sneak into your poem ? But the intent still comes through.

Well

In my opinion any experience which leaves a person awe struck is like a religious experience. BTW previous comment should have said SPINX instead of spine lol. But let's not argue religion, good enough that we can experience stuff that leaves us speechless........
