In the Rage of Reality
Slowly it bubbled and seethed
rolling around my psyche
leaving magenta trails of rage
that were slick to the switch
I traveled a thousand paths
and read a million books,
elusively 'it' remained veiled
burning the lava heating my rage
I wore a domino and understood
nothing of your world,
living in a reality so skewed
it warped, buckling it imploded
in the debris among the questions
I laid in silent fury, breaking nails,
and peeling at the veneer of this mystery
I found an onion with a million layers
my search ceased as sanity fell
the novel idea of knowing vanished,
and now I no longer need to know
I release you from our undertaking
searching for the answer
I performed alchemy
I am now magically unleashed
on a windblown night
forever is moving forward
I go with it into the ether
