Quest or journey?
One has an end in mind, which?
I wonder?
A step, a line to cross; who laid this line?
In my mind, I imagine I am several,
if not many,
opposing mental-
beings, persons, suggests a bird, there...
can you, no, you can't.
I am here, and you are there, and neither of us matters.
At the moment you next notice me, all I knew
of Beckett was sorted and stacked, so
hap hazardly that any thought may seep through the
softening cellular barriers,
holding,my idea of me as more than one thing, being
in contention for
contentment, with godliness {undefined}
how odd. No lie is of the truth; but known lies live
institutelary as gods,
mental constructs, ala church or synagogue or pedagogue
of your choice.
Sort.

here am I, jack of all trades, you paid attention, at the mention of my
name,
the euphemism of vastest worth, or you know jack.
Gnosticsnotso impossibly true as a true player in the balance
of in for by, all manner of pre set positions,
adding weight where weight is wanting,
lifting lightly where denser matter
crushes hope of ever finding love {undefined}
the game of the gods-spirit-winds-whatevers
give and take that makes this world of mere words
flow
through and through, over and under, one way or another.
Here,
join me, it's 2020, I live on the westside of a granite wave,
a reflective wave,
I think, the crest is seven thousand feet, and past that, there
is Borego, and a trail heading east, across the land
in the rain shadow of the Pacific Crest.
This is the rest that remained, after the shamed man's journey
from the east.
West is west, keep going.
Peeping birds, and curious dogs in the distance, neither obtrusive,
but then the dog goes silent,
and the peeping voice could irritate if I were to allow... allow
by whose authority,
do i allow this peeping, ah, I see, it is the squirrel, squeek
no peep.
It will cease if I whistle like a hawk, but
today, that would be lying to the little rodent whose kits
are as cute as any cat on Facebook, but only
when the peep
stops... and the I'll go on, rythm, I'll go on
be yonder when the role is called, say I,
I am here,
waiting with the rest that remain from Eden,
back in the day.
If I could share the state of being being manifest in my west most thoughts,
i think I would do it like this; sitting on my porch, I' d wish you happen to notice how easy life is now, in the bubble I have my being in, with you.
