Eye Sketching

Eye Sketching by Odin Roark Acolytes of inner actualization know… Upon an oak tree Scrawls a name, Never scribed by knife. Within a crowded sidewalk Sketches the seductive smile of an Out of reach dream. Atop a mountain peak The etching of above-the-cloud perception Swirls its heady reward inward. Afloat in reflection’s calm waters, Trusted drawings ripple across Past, present and future pretense. How healing this alternate world… In the mind’s eye, time is given little heed. The impossible embraces imagination, Never succumbing to reality’s disappointments. For one’s inner creations never require tools of actuality, Trusting instead enigma’s eye pencil wisdom, Needing but an occasional sharpening now and again.
