If the walls had ears it would be besieged by the joys and woes of the world, caught in the unpredictable abyss of the combined reverberating vibrations of emotions and impressions crying out in joy and agony vaulting simultaneously and tirelessly toward it. It would quake from the harmonious/disharmonious discord in unison vying for attention, to be heard, acknowledged, validated, selected as primary, superior, Omnipotent, being granted preferential treatment over all others, things, situations, circumstances. It would beseech the most high, the Divine master for a reprieve, permission to bask in its once state purpose of staying roofs, holding frames for doors/cabinetry, creating partitions for rooms, fireplaces, stores, buildings, looking pretty, strong, sophisticated, demure, demolished, polished, lacquered, crackled, stucco, in a colourful rays of grays, browns, reds, greens, pinks, blacks, purples, mauves, and all the shades in-between the betweens happily resigned to its stagnancy stoically submissive to the will of owners, renters and inspectors. To make no choices, to function solely for the purpose for which it is made, to transform only into itself, as it is meant to be, should be, ought to be with no desire to be anything other than it is, a wall, with no ears to hear, to simply be content with being a wall, as is, with no function beyond its intentioned.
Mindfulness Thought:
To be all that one is intended to be is a blessing.
Thanks TONILICIOUS & SIMPLYMEE 4D award.
Blessings all.
ReplyDeleteThis is a Stream of consciousness writing. I love doing it, though I don't do it as much as I should. I like to see what develops from one word, a thought or a sentence. The end results always amazes me. It is a task that requires you to paper and write continuously without lifting your pen from the paper or stopping till all the thoughts are exhausted. It is then you are finished. The thought or rather the query, "If Walls Had Ears"
The point of the practice is to not filter oneself, to be uninhibited. It makes for great analysis at least for me.
Sometimes it can be edited, often though for me, I leave it organically as it developed.
Let me know what you think, what you get from reading it, I am opening to hearing, hopefully you are open to truly sharing as you authentically feel it.
Have a blessed week.
Rhapsody

DeleteVery Interesting. We have often heard the saying "Shh.. walls have ears"- unfortunately they do not have have tongues. So they have to hear what they do but cannot share their pain with anyone else.
ReplyDeleteah so true and that negative energy builds within the walls.
DeleteInteresting. Walls now seem to have a life of their own .. thanks to your piece :-) Blessings!
