When This Mystic Death Occurs Poem by Genova Maaa my mother

When this mystic death occurs,
it involves not only the personal
absence of God, but the apparant
withdrawal of that impersonal support,
that transcendent ground,
on which the self has long felt
its whole real life to be based.

The contact between consciousness
and the ‚spark of the soul‘
is broken off and the transcendental
faculties retreating to their old place
below the threshold are dead
so far as the surface-mind is concerned.
