"infinince" poems
One contested definition of a circle is: A polygon with an infinite number of sides... - A woman in a pretty skirt walks to work at night aware of the stares she receives, ashamed to quietly be thankful for the attention. - An old man looks at the crystal ball in his hand, glimmering and shiny, and suddenly understands mortality - A young boy examines the body of his best friend, cries for hours, then places the dog’s collar around his wrist. - An old lady suffers, unable to meet her own needs, and wonders where the children she ignored have gone. - A young man finds his soul mate but loses himself in her. - Forty-five teenagers wage war on Friday night, their screams of triumph pierce the night air, yet Saturday feels empty and tastes of despair. - A middle-aged father of three hunts a fresh rose in the moonlight, unaware his wilted rose no longer has thorns. - A woman in a business suit bangs against the glass, thick and heavy, and shudders when it fails to crack. - A squinty-eyed man makes good on his debt after years of being gone, then walks off the roof of a forty-story building. - A child of twelve is ignored by haggard-looking parents, yet cries go out when he, in turn, ignores a drowning victim. - A wealthy entrepreneur, of sour looks, enjoys a fine meal by the shore, yet wonders why as the tide rolls in he still feels insatiably hungry. - The drummer in a metal band sees his father’s face in the cowhide, yet each night after the show he still needs ****** to numb the pain. Pythagoreans thought the universe Eternally Recurs, and we know human life has infinite potential. If it's true that human lives eternally recur and are filled with infinite potential Why are we all still in pain?

slide slide down the velvet pipes of every inner wish and dream your mind has created for you wash wash yourself off on mossy banks gone are the ghosts of yesterday your skin is free from the memories that have found a home underneath your fingernails sing sing for beauty sing for peace sing for love sing for light sing for your brothers sing for your sisters and dance without care without cause dance simply because you still can dance and if you want to laugh go ahead and laugh fill your lungs with the stories of the trees the whispers of the wind the sounds of the sky lose yourself in a moment of infinince wake up take a step look around you find your way down a long hall fill your cup with coffee take a seat at a vacant table pick up the morning paper find your car keys drive to work STOP look to your left look to your right step out of your vehicle take your hands off of the wheel detour take the first path you set your eye on follow that path until you come to a cliff look up look down do you jump or turn around close your eyes breath in breath out sing dance laugh and realize you are home
