I’m in
Then out
Then up and about

I spin
I shake
I’m always awake

I’m clear
With fear
But cannot yet hear

The sound
That’s around

My heart
My soul
My reason
My role

For when
I am finally
Found.

sinking
i feel the vertical
horizontally
i drop, going forward
into the present of past
into the front of time
quicker
as i move slower

seeking the essence of what
it means
to be
me.

A bow wave of solitude
An atmosphere, of truth
A conduit for the beautiful
Within the nourishment, of youth.

A diverse composition
A layerd, effect
Reflect apparitions
Of a timeless –
Respect.

Through the eye
Of our history
We struggle to free,
The presence of meaning
From the answers,
We see.

A dynamical history
A reduction, of form
A continued collusion
Through abduction, by storm.
