Inertia

INERTIA I seek nirvana sitting still to prey upon a silent cloud without a color save for dun its shapes that mingle as they will likened to a comely face awaiting color from the sun where sounds are mute with just my sight an aimless trek meanderng an omen cautioning a sign and darkness enters in the night with just the gist of loitering now Buddha’s smile is so benign Pick-A-Title Vol. 15 Poetry Contest Sponsored by Edward Ibeh March 25, 2020

So true, Sergi; when one empties himself, becomes truly silent, he hears more, not less, and sees more clearly a symphony of wondrous images.

I agree with Silent One, the ending goes SO great with this theme of Inertia. What a cool way to deliver the whole idea of inertia. I feel that way a bit staying home all the time.
