Unintentional selfish me, / set foot upon a second path, / one that remains not easily seen. / Confusion set in, / I, a victim of contrived monotony, / murking up my vision, / my contrasting clarity cascading to delusion. / Fleeting at full throttle, / I slipped beneath the undergrowth. / As day dimmed, / I did my best to decipher through discord, / but my dreams dared to dance free, / scattering into the distance. / Eloquently, they lingered near the edge of insanity. / I could have choose the charming life that spared the world from catastrophe, / but instead I uncovered a rare version of me.
Form, Words and Punctuation
I've learned to let go of haphazards,
Be as you are, the mantra I sing out.
It's taken years of half beliefs,
but giving a **** finally won out.
I've learned valuable things
Though I won't apologize for existing
But, I express gratitude for those who look through my weakness.
To see truth is just a fabled thought, no actual tangible thing,
Elusive as me, definition undefined
Truth changes with the tide.
I went through waves of who I was to get to who I am.
Will I suffice to succeed? we won't find out, not even in the end,
it's one of those immeasurable things.
Explanations go unheard, I don't desire to know what you've learned;
you are who you are,
I meet that with expectance and unconditional love.

Time is our invention
giving us a place
in the continuum of life
from our birth to our death.
Time charts our placement
on its' straight-lined course
as today becomes yesterday
and tomorrow replaces today
after day after day after day
Time harnesses the infinite
Reigning into perspective
The billions of eons
behind and before us
the spectrum of the universe
Time is ordered Reality
imposed on disordered Space
expanding and contracting
to an immeasurable rythm
The heartbeat of space
