Kai Michael Neumann Poet Free verse

Apart From Nothingness

proximity was far beyond the reach

 	of closure               departure
		     destination              settlement

immediacy suspended a hung sky

	in longitude              perspectives
	                 equations                   riddles

requests gripped the claws in vain

	from suffering          attachment
			    torture                 stranglehold 

distance called upon commotion

	in puzzlement            surrender
		           gratitude              belief

restitution bridged the gaping hole

	for restitution               destiny
			   awareness           harmony

as the horizon tilted into meaning

	contradicted stagnant apprehension

            	a canopy of scintillating comfort

			crowned her roots with wings to fly

	in liberation             acceptance
		        tranquility               balance

			tarred feathers oozed in the sun

		skin healed the scars of separation

	wounds closed outskirts of despair

outposts became internal delectation 

			
as life reached out and one path closed opened up the journey ...
