Sonnet To Schism

As these long-stifled clouds part Across the indigo sky, Tears purge the nimbus 'way dry, From my dearest desire's heart. Ascending to noble serenity Through the stygian unknown; Breaking through Everest’s stone Forever-- or at least eternity. Although all of the windows may Open, and briskly circulate, Like blood clots they articulate: The seal shall never break away. Alas, the only truth a man May know is the honest candor That there may not exist answers To any of the questions spokén. To the yarns of fate resign Despite free-will’s coy rhyme.
