A Wayward Moment

Contemplation

Constant overtures of melodic meaning

Finding meaning big enough to block oblivion

Dusk to Dawn

Lights blink on and off

Accompanied by songs the crickets sing

Patterns ordered by divinity

which is merely the drop of a few millenia

in a collective bucket

That whisper softly of time and ancient rhythms

Drowning out the cacophony of nihilistic hatred

Sages speak wisdoms in riddles

That are only meant for me

A well read book turns its pages

In my mind

A composure as dynamic

As the oceanic faults

As still as the depths that

Hold space in tiny composite sketches

Yet in sway the height of vast

Is at peace with awe
