Viva La Imagism

Every being that lapses before you
Is but a mere fluorescence
Illuminating your flaws
 
Elementary constellations
 
A façade of what you’ve become 
 
Every strand of organic texture
 
Ejecting slivers of your identity
 
 
 
Every surface, every footprint
 
Annexed imagery 
 
They are all reincarnations
 
Of past, present, and future mistakes
 
 
We are all scientists and teachers
 
Creators and explorers
 
Living within equations
 
Striving endlessly for solutions
 
When the solution lies before us

Viva La Imagism!
