Flickering indistinctly, like the last reel
of an early silent film,
these blurry shadows of windblown leaves
project themselves into
the corners of this simple room.
Inside my mind is another room, lit by intuition.
It is here that possibilities are delicately considered,
weighed, ever so gently, for their potential as eventuality.
This is not to say that my heart never holds sway
in these measured evaluations.
Oh, yes. It does win, from time to time.
Life is just sweeter, I have found, when peace reigns
between these two old friends, and a mutual accord is reached.
