Past the Point

Past all points Pacific

Past the Prime Meridian 

Past all points specific

Into the vast obsidian


Past all points of hindsight 

Past the depth of baited breath

Past all points of twilight 

Into the realm of waiting death

Hi Terri, thanks for the positive feedback. As I near my 65th birthday, I find myself reflecting on my impending merge into the eternal mist. Out of the mist, into the mystic obsidian. Tho, I fear not the night, I mourn the setting sun.
