Notes About The Poem

I took out my new words Journal and looked at words I have saved and with the idea of there you go...etc I tried to make it seem that life has a pre-set destiny  a determinismn if you will and that even if we take a different 
path by exercising our free will we end up at the same finishing point, regardless.
I once read a very interesting book
It is called "Freedom Evolves" and it delves into this argument with the latest findings in quantum physics. 
 If you want to read it it is byDaniel C Dennet.
http://www.edge.org/3rd_culture/bios/dennett.html made my title last of all and once again it is from words I have found over time.

IDisembogue-dis·em·bogue              (d s  m-b g 
v. dis·em·bogued, dis·em·bogu·ing, dis·em·bogues 
v. intr. To flowout or empty, as water from a channel:

FromSpanish desembogue, mouth of a river, from desembocar, to flow out : des-, reversal (from Latin dis-. See dis-)+ embocar, to put into the mouth (en-,in from Latinin-; see in-²+ boca, mouth from Latin bucca, cheek).]

dis em·bogue ment n.

tantmieux 'so much the better'.
So my title means - the more we flow away from one another ,when we return we have more to share and that the outpouring is a restoration in itself.

Desembogue Tant Mieux

Desembogue - Tant Mieux
 
Behold		where you travel		where I travel
 where our forever travels		as if          spinning
 at a  level of molecules    	we  have	always             been mixed

Our short life span though a fantastical  picture
unfolds together 		like a flower          in time lapse
		we journey   you one way	me another		like star children
Destiny, detail, doom	kismet akin	a poem with a fixed form
errant,  we traverse         in	search of wisdom
 
 We agonize over       all  that is opposite		
		malentendu, malificent, mock sun, mock moon        full circle      until		across  a river of un-remembering
    there you are       	there  I am  	as if 	we always knew

   

I have posted in the ABOUT THIS POEM box to explain the title.
