The Pathway
Is there a direction to the universe,
without the polar caps
The equator gone as space expands,
looking forward—looking back
Does today become tomorrow,
as tomorrow self destructs
Are the questions left by law unasked,
when the answers run amuck
Can our thoughts be put in limbo,
can our feelings lead the way
To what is known beyond the light,
illusions cast away
And if just this moment matters,
and the prophets all were right
The doorway back to who we are
—in dreams we’ll dream tonight
(Haverford Pennsylvania: June, 2019)
