And So It Is
There exists something different, strange and mysterious today. I can smell the stillness, perhaps it’s the uncertainty of the known. I blink, accepting an invitation to an alternate reality. I blink again, I can no longer discern what material is, I assure myself it’s of no importance. An indescribable release floods my being, I let go of all attachments that anchor me to a realm of light and dark. There’s a weightlessness found in this saturated calm, like the air after a good hard rain. I feel more alive than ever, the perpetual violet twilight smiles down on me. With grace I push-off, fully immersing myself, slipping silently into the visible abyss of everything and nothing. No longer blinking, I forget all that came before this moment.
“Into the darkness they go, the wise and the lovely.”
― Edna St. Vincent Millay
Henry Halloway reads, “A Dream Within a Dream” by Edgar Allan Poe. Zing!

Mia I loved this. I read your work then listened to that wonderful reading the Edgar Allen Poe poem. I read your piece again. Poe’s work must have inspired yours but they complement each other well. That “nothingness” or a dream with in a dream. Our sense of perception of what is real, all something you play with, but your speaker slips into a place of no “material.”
This reminds me of the beginning of the world — where (for me) existed God and nothing else, yet we were created, live, die, — yet our sense of time to that of Gods, or even the world, can’t be measured. And our existence of souls can be and will be, separate from our bodies. Hard to imagine but I think when Poe says a dream within a dream, life is that dream within, and then after is the real dream — or perhaps, when we wake up for real that is the moment we are ethereal.

Thank you so much Mandi, for sharing such wonderful insight, kind and lovely words. After writing this, I felt the effort had a rather dreamlike quality to it, I couldn’t help but think of Poe’s “A Dream Within A Dream”. It does give rise to the idea of what’s real and what we perceive as real, and in fact is there a difference or does it matter? It is, “Hard to imagine” definitely, the divide between the here and now and the ethereal. Mandi, wishing you a wonderful and most creative day, thank you again for a marvelous comment. ~ Mia 🙂

I found out about the US that first,it is a tough country, meaning, that here in Spain you can get into the social security services without working a single day in your life and you will get a pay check from the state, not happening in the US, and that is what I liked about that country, here in Spain you créate by giving handouts to people be it for disemployment, or for housing, or for a bunch of other things, that you créate what I call a parasite society. It is the norm here to look up to the government to help you out. Not in the U.S, so in that sense I like it because you gotta work for what you want, might be a shitty job, and trust me I had a bunch of those, but they are Jobs, I worked in construction and not as these college kids that I met that the summer vacation they would do that because of their rich parents told them to do so, so in the minds of the parents the kids would get a sense of working “hard”, I actually find it harder to work in an office, so the consturuction job was my lifeline, didn´t have that didn´t have to pay the rent nor food nor…my cigarettes!!
Going to get to the point, it is a tough country in the sense that you do not depend on the State, is not a welfare country although as I see Obama this guy is right out of the Socialist party that has ruled Spain for half of its history as a democracy. And living this, I will say that it is imposible to maintain a country in a socialist type of way. There will always be people on the top and people on the bottom and it should be that way, who the hell thinks I put bricks to build a house for some rich person, me and some quite others and that gave us money, I don´t expect for the government to give me anything, am actually ashamed that they do now, I am passing by with the help of the government, I should add that after also 4 years in the Spanish Legion might as well say fuck them I put my time on what you send me to do so give me the money honey!! Not really, but I do feel sometimes that way when people tell me other things.
In Spain 40% of the money going out of the State it goes for food stamps, pensions, prescription drugs (they do pay it here the government) and the rest of all “good social services” plus hospitals and e.t.s, that is 40% of what people who work put into the government,so s pure math, how in the world can you sustain anything if you art taking out more than you are putting in? And that is socialism, it sounds great when they say about raising minimmun wages for the poor and the rest, sounds great to the ear of the people, and is very easy to manipulate masses, but it just does not work, I know, live it seen it.
And I got carried away…..

Hi Mia, wonderful piece of prose you’ve created here. Very surreal actually. I can understand why you’ve paired it with Edgar Allen Poe’s ‘A Dream Within a Dream’. The third paragraph makes me think about freedom, and how it’s often found in releasing control. I have had experiences of such freedom – like realizing that I am not in control, nor do I need to be. I’m sure that probably doesn’t make much sense, but for me it does on a very personal level. It also makes me think of transparency. I say that because of my own personal experiences of fear and thinking that I can actually keep some things to myself, hidden away from God’s knowledge. It was only after I realized that there is absolutely nothing that I can hide from Him, that I was ‘released from the fear bondage’ (for lack of a better word/expression). This knowing that He knows all, and yet still loves and accepts me.
Mia, please forgive me if this sounds a little quirky or if it doesn’t make much sense at all. These are my personal experiences. Very inward and intimate ones.
Thank you so much for sharing this piece with me. It’s wonderful, and I think you really should post more of your prose.

I think the reason I have not posted any of these, is because they’re personal thoughts about things, yet at the same time enlightening, at least for me.
Immediately I thought about Poe’s poem, because I felt the writing has sort of a dreamlike quality to it. Don’t we all wonder if we’re living in a dream once in a while?

Staci, as always I want to thank you for a thoughtful reply. I think we all have to escape from time to time and perhaps creativity plays an important role and is a healthy way to deal with this escape of day to day living and the stress that it offers. To literally live in a fantasy and not be aware or address reality seems psychologically dangerous to me. Living under the umbrella of false believes all the time most surely will catch up with an individual at some point. We’ve spoken about some of the things that reinforce these false beliefs or fantasies, it’s one of constant affirmation through immediate gratification, which so often takes place in the virtual world. This maybe harsh criticism, it’s just part of the problem as I see it. While technology is wonderful how do we turn back? How do we address and stop the negative impact it has, and how do we stop the unhealthy rewiring of the human brain? Ha-ha, a bit of a rant… So much for staying on topic, ha-ha! 🙂
