i ponder while i wander
my brain doesn't want to rest
giving it my all
doesn't mean I've done my best
i guess ill get on the road
this cities already burnt down
i don't have certainty
which is why i wander around
but thank you for reminding me of my practice
i will keep my beginners mind
i will learn what i came here to
i will be kind to others
break the borders of "me" and "you"
theres nothing that can stop me
I've chosen the rabbit hole
my ego awakened in awareness
all in cahoots with my soul
as i fall, fall, fall
i see it all
its only when i stop
i think I've reached the top
i sway east and blow west
the cold wind whipping from the north
pressing my direction south
still always pushing forth
in a steady gravity
i find me translucent
heavily right brained
I'm doing what the left cant
a spirit in human form
the form still yet inaccurate
testing the limits of infinity
defining ones own brackets
i say yes to your answer
i question your query
staple my mouth shut
much to your fury
but
as i fall, fall, fall
i will see it all
its only when i stop
that i fear the drop
I like this poem a lot, but stanza 5 leaves me dizzy and confused, perhaps that is an intended feeling?
ReplyDeleteMy favorite stanzas are 3 and 6. I love the image of breaking borders, and your ego and soul being in cahoots with on another. I haven't heard the word cahoots in a long time. I wonder how many other words are collecting dust as they mind away there time in my brain.
I love how in stanza 6 you're transforming, you're testing the limits of infinity. The entire imagery in these 8 lines blows my mind. It's beautiful.
