On Movements

neverending
swift - even
in times of 
stillness
brewing
bubbling
steaming
tot he point
of combustion
a releasing
from the 
cocoon
a fluttering
of wings
when it's 
time to be
seen - a
journey
going
forward
even when
it seems 
like it's not
sankofa
into 
ma'at

Robby's Multimedia Poetry

Date: 2/18/2021 7:59:00 PM

Heya, Robby from blogtalk/speakeasy here. This sounds like my mind! It's always on the go. My blessing and my curse. Alwyas interesting to read soemthing that reminds you of an aspect of yourself. The way the poem is framed with the way you laid out the words visually helps to convey a sense of flow and fast action :)
