The Rush Of Spirit Poetry Poem by Kenneth Maswabi

This is not an art form
Or science fiction
It is the equivalent of a lightning strike
Like swallowing a million volts
And vaporising the cord of being
It takes only a billionth of a second
But every fibre of being is paralysed
Wrapped in the most intense moment
All ripples are erased
Only the substance of being is illuminated
This is the rush of spirit poetry
It is the intensity of the Light
That solidifies into the most beautiful words
Spirit poetry is the language of the soul
The spirit is allowed to manifest
Inside the core of every word
The miracle is not on the words themselves
It is the life that is poured on each and every word
So that life occupies the fibre of every word
God is a master Artist and the supreme Creator of all things
I can only bow down in awe of His Spirit
It is the Spirit of unconditional Love
That makes every fibre of my being tick
It is the substance of nothingness
That outweighs everything I know
I am intoxicated and healed by the medicine of poetry
