My Passion
To pass through dura matter, leave the wilderness behind
Exit above vast spaces, join imperceivable dots
Have an out of body experience, each and every night
Uncover reality, burn away banality
Know why, observing a quanta gives it choice
Place this very thought on weighing scales, does it contain mass
Enter a singularity, ask why it occupies no space
Fly backwards through eternity, and emerge straight ahead
Find out what compelled me to write this damn verse
Something did, but from which universe
I know I’m barely nothing in the grand scheme of things
but I am something,
which means, without me the whole’s incomplete
To ponder that line, oh to ponder it so deep
Do ends and beginnings run parallel along membranous lines
can omnipotence fill the hollow within
Will cosmic branes shimmer and buckle,
then divide exponentially
Why steeped in passion came an aberration of kindness,
prepared and willing to be hung out to dry
