Unexpectedly
I slip upon certainty
So I unravel
In the beginning,
Though I can’t recall, I’m sure,
Therein lies my end.
I sat by water
As the sun rose before me
A Sandwich of Life
In expectations –
In their very subversion –
There lies the sublime.
Take lead from the Fool:
Knowing nothing, nothing hurts.
All is feasible.
What is worse than hate?
An ass, between two hay bales
Starving to its death
Clouded behind words
In time clouds pass, but so too
Does that which they shroud
A star darts away
Failing to see, all the while
It’s already caught
Are humans that scared
Of a reality that
They cannot cling to?
Tracing the path back
Each day a new regression –
I find my future
