I Don't Write For Myself And By Myself Poem by Kenneth Maswabi

I am not mad
I am totally insane
Not because I am affected and afflicted
Or possessed by demonic forces
I am intoxicated by the contents of Silence
Every vessel of my being is submerged in ecstasy
The molecules of peace, hope and happiness envelope my being
The cord of existence nourishes the stem of my being
The womb of existence is my home
I don't write for myself and by myself
I am in the presence of Silence
Silence is my madness and my medicine
I write according to the prescribed state of awareness
The path of Light is full of knowledge
One cannot fully comprehend it all
Unless one is cured of his/her blindness (ego)
And allowed to be present inside the realm of nothingness
This is the remedy to my insanity
To be naked inside the garden of life
And let my spirit be seen
Hopefully, bringing meaning and healing
Beyond our daily squabbles with life
