The Silverthread

I close my eyes
I regulate my breath
I free my mind and gather myself
Without my body I lean to my left side
I slip out of it
I look back to my body
And the connected silverthread
I see the now visible beings around me
I start my journey
I pass woods seas and fields
I only have to imagine a place
And within the wink of an eye I'm there

I visit a city
I see crowded people
Made unhappy by the greyness
I visit a country
I see starving people
Made hungry by the mighty
I visit a jungle
I see its native people
Made homeless by the greedy

I hear the crying of the world
And I join in
