Fractured Clarity

Fractured Clarity

gazing

through the weekend window

scenery blurred in shadowed haze

society’s harsh edges

faded to grey…

I saw mirrors....

mirrors upon mirrors...

suspended before my eyes...

each revealing a different image....

images that blurred

and changed before my startled cries....

my eyes brim with tears

and carry in them

 a melancholy that is unfathomable....

I find myself

hurtling

chaotically

down a labyrinthine tunnel

of veiled complexities…

entering the twilight zone

of my existence

a realm of deep profundity

I have never dared

to probe…

thoughts profound

in their simplicity

chant a primal mantra

too intense for my soul

to grasp….

debilitating reasoning

encumbers free thought

as all prior knowledge

disintegrates

into meaningless

echoes

under the onslaught

of such philosophical abstrusity …

I hear the very universe

hold its breath

willing me to seize

a shard of fractured clarity

almost daring me to run with it

to the end of time…

but clarity drifts

in obscure whispers

forever

beyond my perception

a profound premise

forever beyond

my mind…..
