on the cusp of understanding

on the cusp of understanding

where one line ends

and another begins

where becoming settled

is the very time for conclusion

yet tomorrow as today

the process

will be separated

exploring caverns in the darkness

always to find a light

as if

even without questions answered

a peaceful resting place

may evolve

as a psychological reconstruction

Available at Amazon

just at that very moment

just at that very moment

as the end bell rings

i have everything in its place

all is settled

the once turbulent waters are still

yet of course

there is more to be worried about

each detail will

turn over or introduce

a further detail

and so life will go on

also dreams and meditations

where the working out

has its own methods

as well as its own motivations

how?

or mostly

chancing ones arm

day by day

and love

there in continuum

going up and down

clarity is the sublime emptiness

love is the exquisite completeness

between clarity and love

the soul and the spirit

are continuously replenished

as long as

the heart is still beating

now time

now time

at once wasted

with half-hearted suggestions

and altogether indifferent responses

no splash of perfume

or swirl of silk scarf

no splash of cologne

or dancing in the dark

amble on

in ample time

of resonance and recovery

along narrow country lanes

with high bramble hedges

where horse and cart

carried the harvest

when forgetful actions

left one all alone
