CONSTANT BEGINNING
This is the Constant Beginning,
A potentially-beingness, within reach,
Only discoverable by: plotting starless nights.
It is quite apparent that these
Fossilised branches haven’t granted any break
Not one single peculiar arrangement
For unusual germination.
Look Closer.
Grinding emptiness reveals disguised opportunity.
A starless night is only seemingly starless,
For one minuscule moment.
Adjust your eyes.
A surface reflecting vague light,
but light all the same,
Water
Chaos.
Torrent.
Cry out!!!!!
A loosening of grip,
blurred boundaries and extinguished reign.
Soothe and slowly wear away,
Tide, by tide,
Even rock can’t forever stay in this place.
Insemination.
A blood blister, bursting.
New avenues, channels,
Stretching out, running free,
Shards, flecks, reflections, drips,
All ways at once!
Horizons before,
The ability to understand lagging behind:
Drunk on heightened awareness.
Do you feel rushed now?
Try to resist it, there is time, I promise.
There is time for this firework of yours
to dance amongst the dense air
of the dark night’s sky.
The bright, wet spark burning its own
explosive passageway
through stale, compressed air.
There is time, eternity, for you too.
The way forward to predict a spark’s passage
cannot be so clear,
The only clarity available is present through
the dedicated service
To this spark.
Bang! Pop! Whizzzzzzzzz!
Escape!
To carry this spark
On undulating open plains
A ground responsive to its twists and turns
But cautious of its fragility and newness,
New branches
Knowing of the whole tree.
Are these my new pair of new shoes?
Or are these my old shoes,
ancient and worn, forgotten?
I : You
Limiting for this space of
Endless speckles of dust,
the skin floating above
Cerulean, cool and muddied water.
Within the constant beginning.
