Life’s Aperture
           by Odin Roark

Notice the light
Or lack thereof
How the details
Falter in shadow
But imprint in light

Naiveté thinking suggests
We can control light’s fundamental purpose
To assist our awakened perception

So why…

White/reds or shoot-ups
To leapfrog over natural time
Denigrating nature’s recharge

Yet

Oh how we think we know better
Pop a pill for this
Another for that
Pound our mood with her
Deflate our mood with him
On and on the quest to escape

Once

There was simplicity of understanding
When the sun came up
We did what we needed to do to survive that day
When the sun went down
We relaxed our weary bodies
Found simple comforts
Food
Drink
Sex
Sleep

Now

That perceptive opening
Our aperture of freedom 
Is being coerced
Tempting self-sabotage

Dimness informs
Alerting deprivation
Presenting discovery’s 
Illumination/Darkness

Might it be…

The yin and yang of lessons
One’s open and closed eyes
Has been reduced to manufactured
Mind games
Biological influences
Supernatural brainwashing 
Infiltrating our sentient power
With imprisonment

Dreaming can’t flip a switch for enlightenment
Nor find solace in darkness
For light is light
Dark is dark
Each dependent on the other
As couplet perfection 

To think about that
Is to wonder what higher cosmic intelligence
Would do with our evasion

Perhaps

It’s time to ask
Not what our brain can do for us
But what we can do for our brain

Ironically for some

There’s always Florida’s Mega Money jackpot
