Imponderabilia

Memories of future events

	Recollections of measures ahead

		Reminiscence in fast forward

			Aspirations leaping back

        Projections of past reckoning

	        Icebergs frozen in conscience

		         Consciousness without borders

			           Recollective molten amnesia

Advanced reality looms precariously in forgone loops of oblivion

Renounced surrender pleads for reprieve in courageous defeat

A clairvoyant seeks to make sense of tea leaves still drowned

The backstage raven cusps darkened hope where none is left
 

Futuristic amnesia on the run is looking onto sunken imprints

Dragged feet are pegged to a ragged core of stuttering insanity

Wild wings roar raging on collision courses with roots’ firm recall

Yet the fool seeks wisdom if only for reruns of nascent madness


The black bird is caught in a trap of concerted voices in aphasia

A torn music sheet drifts down an abyss behind closed curtains

But the clouded clown’s mind refuses time's penultimate applause

Claps his bound feet and decides to enrol in imponderable cheers
