The sky broke, it did not rain,
the clouds did not part,
a faded blue did not fade away,
behind that, an intimation,
a featureless back-lit gray
watched.
Eyes blinked, heads turned,
a silent cacophony plucked
at a collective deafness.
Some presumed, other's assumed,
but all knew
that the space between us, and the All,
was as fragile as the air in our lungs
or those turbulent skies
behind our eyes.

INTIMATIONS
feeling
settled
sad
& tired
a kind
of loneliness
tell us
something intimate
pitches us
into confusion
of
an infinity
loop
a short circuit
with no way out
an insight
into the mystery
of genius
confronts
the search
for beauty
in truth
a rock
to cling to
a moment
of recognition
a moment of gazing
at myself
to create
an image
of attitudes
bathed in
ease
of
contemplation
a natural
&
fresh paradox
of inividual
personification

INTIMATIONS
feature
prominently
among
connoisseurs
open
to new ideas
new thoughts
awaited
in
an intense
meditative
ethereal
experience
the
height
of isolation
so insular
from emotion
latticed
to inspiration
a focused
theme
of
the increasingly
unpredictable
& appealing
in an age
of escalating
uncertainty
in
this secluded
place
the joy
better suited
to
the rambling
remains
of a seductive
backdrop
of precious
pieces
in a smooth
heritage
fortified
by
the contemporary
resonance
of the
temporary

We are left clues everywhere--
the purring of the Eternal
made by a boundless ocean
as it laps the shore,
the winds as they kiss
your cheeks and lift
the game heart, the sun's
soft touch on open flesh,
its breath warming and pulling
us up, outward to blue sky...
