Broom Dust

There's nothing I need to say here.

There's every thing that needs be said. 

Finding personal fluorescence, that's the desire. 

Switch on and suddenly be bright. 
Life as easy as electric light. 

Yet the power standing on these shoulders of progress, is it guaranteed? 

Can't say with authority. Only know the chaos entropy wave continues unabated. Is this perception truth, or the mere trick of age and ever mind garnished maturity?

Funny thing about persisting along the human consciousness time line, each moment carries added associations of memory. Each action recalls not just a moment of repetition, but especially the remembered comment of another.  

And so present experience deepens.  Layers of association. I open the fridge and remember what she said. I hitch this trailer and the first time occurs to me. 

Guess that's why the wise travel, verses making the morning coffee the same way, again.

I haven't ever declared i have answers to such questions.  Just know I carry a candle.  Handy when describing the darkness of this uncertain life. 

Cast on my friends. Don't stop pushing backwards the gloom. Fret not whether you are the floor or the broom.

When Sanity Snickers

When sanity snickers, and memory mumbles

When angels dither, and darkness drinks yet deeper pools

We wonder, singular and many, how long to remain patient and patently obtuse


When complex considerations become simple choices

When merely wishing to write out these thoughts is chilled from doing so in digital format

When the medium becomes the danger

When we wonder what paranoia is suspect, and what is sufficient


When the eyes and the brain no longer agree

When the scratch out tells more than the perfect calligraphy

When shape becomes more than a relationship of structure and surface

When color was born, and flowers first bloomed across the Earth
