The Spirit Quest

Elusive lulls of lucidity linger,

slightly, in my

retrospection-

 

behind thick, thick sprawls

of stones for walls, built to

defend what I felt, then

most relevant.

 

Once at escape,

 

I meet, at random,

apace

tangents

that spin

me gently into

 

Light,

 

wherein I sigh

at ease, slow-

ly breathing

in the peace flowing

abundant,

 

amid

Tranquility.

 

Lucidity's quite funny, in that

when precious to one,

proves slippery, and when gotten,

too foreign,

 

to keep lucid, in a state

that, without light, is

forsaken,

to the ever-

turn of

 

Chasing the Light.

Truth, once desired, can never be truly undesired. Tenured trooper on an Ever-Quest for Truth and Light.
