Most Time

Most time is 
unremarkable:

the conscious mind asleep
between stitches and scores
hoots and howls
sweet scents and fouls
hunger and bowels--

viruses needing cures,
shifting earth
and weather skewers
determining our garments
and directions…

even our intimate affections
a product of environment,
each a prison of sorts

Strange, yet God claims
not to lead us…
