Swallow it down.
Don't look at it,
don't taste it,
just swallow.
If it's bad,
it will come back up.
Writhing and severe,
from the depths we dare not speak of.
Or,
it will be good,
and settle.
Lead you never to wander.
Never a second thought,
a glance back.
It's in the space between,
the moment right before,
hanging in the precious balance.
Where everything and nothing collide and live.
Where you can swirl it around,
dissect it's every intention,
breath it in, and wonder.
and wander....and wonder...
Wonder what it is exactly?
That you're seeing?
Is it what they tell you it is?
Or is it what you perceive it to be,
with your own eyes?
Only one way to find out...
right?
Swallow...
and wait.
