An Oasis of Truth

It is the wilderness experience which delivers clarity
in the rising winds swirling around our daily efforts
causing the chaffing, blinding sandstorm
when eyes dimmed from constant blinking
have no place to look except the inner eye-lids.

It is in this dryness and weakened condition,
absent of our own self-created flow of energy
where the nourishment of truth can finally rise,
a fountain of living water in the midst of the desert.
The oasis in the distance is the shimmering reality.
