Absurd Walls

Absurd Walls:
By Mark Miller 03/08/2018

I sit in wait,
For melancholic relief
Consumes self-trust resistance.
Out from the clear and into the black shatter dust. 
Although, I cannot explain its purpose or meaning for there is none. 
Awareness prevents comprehension to the future posture rectitude. 
Only leftovers illuminate on that origin which brings me to this momentary lapse. 
Where time and space have no relevance. 
The feeling of structure fades into the microwave static.
Only the emotion healing sustains. 
Somewhere, out there in the cosmos lies the basal complexional of coexistence. 
The complicit deranges. 
The peaceful transits,
Our group comfort loneliness 
Between the minimal change of selves, 
Through the pulsar's suddenness
 I return and am one with myself, 
Time wraps around the feeling dissipates,
Gone like childhood memory from everywhere.-
