Later That Evening

One’s own reality is sometimes judged off-center, when in fact, it’s possibly life's desperate attempt to be involved in-sanity. (Pic by Berndnaut Smilde)

Poem Artwork
Later That Evening
by Odin Roark

Later that evening
We saw sounds of lightning’s wings
Touches of symphonic batons
The fragrance of paint awaiting canvas
The images of inner peace
The taste of weightlessness

So many sensations
Unavailable during the day

You remember?

So easy
It was
The we of me
Of you
Oneness
Reserved
For collective beingness

We let the flames warm
The day’s frozen fears
Our sun-cloud enlighten doubt
Simplicity personify permanence
As we gave away
The need for nothingness

You do remember
Don’t you?

Such were our times together
What only one’s muse and charge
Can know

All else is illusion

Remember?

I'm trying to figure out whether this was a result of staring into the fire, something that was drunk, perhaps a fine wine, or smoked, or just the Muse rising in the darkness. Left me totally confused. Which is normal, I guess, rather than insanity.

I love this. In ways similar evenings for me. "Fragrance of paint... " "images of inner peace "... "the need for nothingness ".... etc.

You know the ants and the roaches are luckier than we are, for they have us to verify their existence. As for us humans, who is going to verify for us that we really do exist? And if we don't exist because no one can verify for us that we do exist, then what is the difference between realities and dreams? All this is just an illusion, or delusion that are constructed by our human's minds. We all don't know better than the ants and the roaches that they know they do exist in this world.
