You Might Ask Yourself Why

Perpendicular to the day and the horizon looks no nearer than the day before a yesterday, am I moving or is this spinning just a symptom of something my mind can't touch upon? If looking inward is the answer and the universe spreads before me is this darkness just a sea that I can't see? when I drop and swallow atoms is it stardust that flows through me and are light years truly lighter than the years I carry with me? It's a circuit and I'm shorting getting caught in the minutiae where eventuality and I will meet head on. The time lapses delay me on the way to self discovery, but the spark flies ever upward perpendicular to the day.
