On Human Responsibility In a Chaotic World
I hear it,
Like the many lights flashing
just to keep me going.
Contrary to the damp twisted sheets
as my anchor to
the warm drip.
On my invisible brow
I have been spat
And I am not counting
Now,
Theres always an echo of an army
poised in the dark
between finishing and pointlessness
Sometimes gumming Orchid petals and clicking wooden heels
over and over.
For the first time today I remembered there was something outside
of me.
I heard a resonating moan.
Nothing like air nor flesh
but many strong puzzle pieces
spinnging and catching
to simply and suprisingly
keep going
forward.
