To Experience The Numinous Is Really Very Easy, Without Sacred Molecules
With practice,
a notion of Sphinx,
a couple of blinks
a dance
and a glance at a sunrise
will do it.

Hi Jess
you have put across the message very nicely in this short write...the way I read it is that for a strong spiritual connection religious beliefs may not be necessary....reads smoothly too... a pleasure read..

Best of you...
in a while! A truly wordy title, but without such, one might have gone off into the sunset and completely misinterpreted the intent as just being a flashback! Sorry, no criticism. ~Gee.

There is value to commenting and critique, tell us how you feel about our work.
This must be the place, 'cause there ain't no place like this place anywhere near this place.

Ta mate
I don't know why but really long titles on really short poems always make me smile.

Brilliant elegance
Hi Jess,
That one I want to hang on my wall. It feels like an open window.
Your poem conveys the thouught and the mood perfectly. The tittle is not needed to my opinion it just says the same in a weird way.
Pleasure to read your new poems.

OOPSY
Do you realize your using the spine allows religion to sneak into your poem ? But the intent still comes through.

Come on Satan, oops, Stan
You would be the first to say that an experience of the numinous is often opposite to religion.

Well
In my opinion any experience which leaves a person awe struck is like a religious experience. BTW previous comment should have said SPINX instead of spine lol. But let's not argue religion, good enough that we can experience stuff that leaves us speechless........
