EMERGENT
By Leon Enriquez
In the emergent light you see
Order and chaos within a hint
That taut poise in ambiguity
A flash of insight in raw tint
The known in the unknown tangle
That shows an unseen point of view
Sore dilemma in triangle
Confronts conflict in visual cue
~~~~~~~~~
Do you now know just what you know?
The plain truth and the paradox
Movement in moments here that show
Thought and afterthought that flip box
Discern the inconstancy there
With the surge of jibber-jabber
In contradictions that craft flair
Where certainty aligns fever
~~~~~~~~~
Two companions sit by my side
Each wears a certain arc of grace
Truth keeps company with the tides
Paradox lures wit in embrace
Drama confronts primal fancy
As truth speaks with silence profound
Paradox casts views contrary
As irony captures odd grounds
~~~~~~~~~
Know the steady embrace of truth
That sits silently by your side
Where you seek the emotive proof
As flaming paradox rides
Yet we toss and turn and lay blame
Seek refuge in the light of truth
As if playing a losing game
When the simple truth channels proof
~~~~~~~~~
I hear the conversations here
Tryst with twin companions of flow
Speak as conscious quivers draw near
Am I certain that I now know?
Silence speaks with profound deep tones
As echoes flood my mortal feel
Truth and paradox match old bones
An enlightening moment spills
~~~~~~~~~
I question the truth with touch strange
Hear truth prompts choice in poise of voice
Paradox answers through tough change
Two options in twist of brisk noise
So we try our best to live grief
Yet cannot leave our mortal veil
So we traverse change not so brief
As human consciousness avails
