Crocking clay formations
Breaking down, awake
Makes –
The chemistry of reason
Into a postulated, lake.

Energetic remains
From a comet’s, white rain
Reveals a nature
Within our unknown
Domains.

A pinprick
Of wisdom
A faint, unrefined

An emotional, reaction
To a strange something
Undefined.

The foreground, in life
Detects a background,
Of death

As defective, design
Destroys its intake,
Of breath.

Layers
Of history,
Deeply extend

The sense
Of adventure,
On the road
To the end.

A streaking, path essential
Boldly shrieking, through my soul

Finds a sign of spirit
Boldly seeking –
Its sense of role.

A darkness
Of vision
A conscience
Of mind

A soul twisting
Wisdom
From a light,
Intertwined.

Blended views
Of extremist hues
Ascend –
Into a universe, that’s colored
True.

Blasting on outward
We look, from within
To find our reflection
From the point, we begin.
