Rising Spirit
X-treme Haiku
By Jennifer Kiley
Friday 5th July 2013
Awakening words
Slow motion quick reaction
Waiting needs reassurance
Darkness echoes screams
Wails release in death’s lament
Hands pressing skull screaming ends
Time slips laughter starts
Responding smile vanishes
Forming balance bends sideways
Claw upward to view
Crash downward head cracks open
Bleeding wounded covers scars
Fucking words talking
Anger buried real nightmares
Shameful needs must want loving
Broken hearts longing
Vulnerability true
Joyful river flowing through
Awaken faith new
Heart touches soul love enters
Sweet song of rising spirit

QUOTATIONS from THE DIVINE COMEDY
“In that book which is my memory,
On the first page of the chapter
that is the day when I first met you,
Appear the words, ‘Here begins a new life’.”
― Dante Alighieri, Vita Nuova
“The mind which is created quick to love,
is responsive to everything that is pleasing,
soon as by pleasure it is awakened into activity.
Your apprehensive faculty draws an impression from a real object,
and unfolds it within you, so that it makes the mind turn thereto.
And if, being turned, it inclines towards it, that inclination is love;
that is nature, which through pleasure is bound anew within you.”
― Dante Alighieri, The Divine Comedy
“The more a thing is perfect,
the more if feels pleasure and pain.”
― Dante Alighieri, The Divine Comedy
“I found myself within a forest dark,
for the straightforward pathway had been lost.
Ah me! How hard a thing is to say,
what was this forest savage, rough, and stern,
which in the very thought renews the fear.
So bitter is it, death is little more…”
― Dante Alighieri, The Divine Comedy
“There is no greater sorrow
than to recall happiness in times of misery.”
― Dante Alighieri, The Divine Comedy
“When any of our faculties retains a strong impression of delight or pain,
the soul will wholly concentrate on that, neglecting any other power it has;
and thus, when something seen or heard secures the soul in stringent grip,
time moves and yet we do not notice it.” ― Dante Alighieri, The Divine Comedy
“Those ancients who in poetry presented the golden age,
who sang its happy state, perhaps, in their Parnassus,
dreamt this place. Here, mankind’s root was innocent;
and here were every fruit and never-ending spring;
these streams–the nectar of which poets sing.”
― Dante Alighieri, The Divine Comedy
