The Tangled Branch Discussion Forums

Pure as a monk
and sky-clad
I entered this world
and regardless of time 
shedding skin
and generic Sunday service absolution
under my clothes
karma's pock marks 
like join-the-dots
proliferate invisible 
not as bad as the last time
but not good enough
to send me skyward 
this time.

 
 

Nice use of a recent theme, Colm. I'm impressed by how quickly you were able to turn it to your main, ongoing discussion. The Jainist element works beautifully.

Thanks Linda.
And thanks again for reconnecting me to that sect. I have thought about them often, and now think, if we do reincarnate, I used to be one and hated the discomfort so much I regressed to my current state 
Still loving 'Sky-clad'. Don't be surprised if I use it often
