Deeper Depths

In deeper depths we strive to peek
through sharper optical technique
and glimpse beyond to sights unseen
with magnifying lenses keen
and special telescopic tweak.

Still here on earth with doublespeak
we inadvertent havoc wreak
albeit nature holds the lien
in deeper depths.

Yet ‘midst the visible mystique
within perception’s mien oblique
concealed beneath illusion’s screen,
could there be beingness serene
an all-embracing realm to seek
in deeper depths?
