We have swum
so deeply below
The turbulent
waters of our
passage into
This, our
current
domain
Trends & eddies
generated from
a host of passing
splendid creatures
Elemental forces
beyond comprehension
Would the mind
boggle if only we
were in any way
capable of cor-
relating it all
Lucky for us there
is a membrane of
insulation throughout
The cellular divisions
separating our nervous
meat from ourselves
It is here where lightning
flashes dissolve our very
memory forcing us
to occupy that rarest
stance of existence
That we/he/she/
I/you are all alone with
nothing standing between
us and oblivion when you
consider it enough
From the heart which
is carried by the legs
it continually powers
A trackless run through
evaporating curtains of
undulating borealis
On the eastern slopes
Of a dim far away
mountain line
merging in the gray
Haze of crumbling memories
Suffering the added
weight of so many
sunsets
