Limbo

Limbo,
A place I dwell. 
The world whirling by.
Time is a constant.
Yet, unrecognizable.
Days, Months, Decades
Melt into one moment of limbo.

Ambivalence,
A place I dwell.
Immobilized by apprehension
Of climbing to fall…
Falling is a constant.
Yet, disillusionment.
I will ascend again.

Stagnant.
A place I dwell.
Irresolute in movement.
Movement isn’t always a constant.
Yet, progress IS a given.

Limbo,
A place I dwell.
Life whirling by.
Existence is a constant.
Yet, wearisome.
Days, Months, Decades
Melt into one moment of paradoxical metamorphosis…
