Enlightened I, Look Beyond

Enlightened I, Look Beyond

Cacophonous chatter reverberates down congested hallways
Human minds stir anxious thoughts
Yet amidst the scattered, clouded banter
I force myself to read on.
The world spins on, a chaotic top
Trying not to fall off the coffee stained table, I breathe in
Snow white corset pulls tight digging persistent daggers
To taunt skin, clung to sore screaming ribs
Eyes blur to printed words
Ponders wander behind carefully edited pages
Earthquakes rumble shifting tectonic plates within my brain
Steady the queen,
Forfeit a few pawns to disastrous tremors 
Continue on, dead set center of the hurricane
Enlightened I let in the light
Elucidating my next move 
Peer into the future
Do not ignore the present gifts
Have faith, My Child, for when you believe you’ll find 
Sanctuary is within the groove
