a trance
something we enter
but also something we can exit from
the trance infers there is a conscious awareness
that exists before and after its existence
the trance infers a temporary state of being
the trance infers that a set of conditions result in our entry into it
the trance infers a set of conditions that release us from it
the trance infers a dream like state when we are in it
in a trance we can still enjoy all of our senses
within the trance our physical bodies are fully alive and functioning
we may not know at all that we are in a trace or
we may only have the slightest inclination that what is perceived is not quite real
and yet within the trance our mind is fixated on a way of seeing which is corrupt
the trace is one of separation and is incredibly powerful
great determination is required of the individual to overcome it
the greatest enemy of the trance is stillness
for when the mind is quiet, its mischievous hands are bound
with persistent silence cracks begin to reach the depths of the trance
cracks that determination and will invade and push upon
fueled by driving wedges of intense yearning, a deep love, a great hunger
such is the breaking of the trance
