Mary and Martha

Mary and Martha

Mary sleeps soundly

and a dream arises..

Mary resides in Denver

 dreams she is Martha

walking on Tejon Street

in Colorado Springs..

Mary's infinite Mind

 found in deep sleep

seems now split

into the mind of Martha

and Martha's enjoyment of

Acacia Park and stores

restaurants and streets..

Mary's sleep veiled

her infinite Being

to become Martha

enjoying the sights

in Colorado Springs..

But Martha's joys

turn out to be

temporary as she

finds a parking ticket

dashing her pleasures..

And she soon wishes 

to find again 

the happiness she

seemed so recently

to know..

Martha's experience

like our own

is to discover

sooner or later

the truth surprise:

 Mary is Martha...
