The Illusory Nature of the Inner World
Karl Constantine FOLKES 1935 (Portland)
SELF at rest.
Leaving busy thoughts behind.
Entering a space where consciousness is not desired.
Experiencing an exoplanet inner world of newfound possibilities.
Programmed enigmatically by the archetypal collective unconscious.
About this poem
As the Bard William Shakespeare once declared in The Tempest: “We are such stuff as dreams are made of.”
