there are days i long for
the allure of philosophy.
writing.
a less personal affair,
but only to a degree.
rather than what i do.
such responsibility, to hold
another's fragile mental
stability within the palm
of my hand!
i am no healer, i do not
offer cures. no. the
gravitation i hold
is simply an
e
c
h
o
of everything
which shall always
be nothing more than
the reverberation of my soul.
i am not a poet.
my mother tongue is not
within clever word
play or meter.
i speak the words of the
effervescent
cosmic tapestry
within the singing
of the spheres.
there is a quiet history in
that celestial symphony,
an Edda of instrumental
humming all that
was and shall be.
