All fades
As a dream -
One's entire lifetime
Every awareness of the sublime
Of being, knowing, doing,
Seeing the vast incomprehensible
In forever's crucible.
What then?
Faith to comprehend
The by products
Of having lived
Of not having known
The core of truth.
Forever, perhaps, truth unfolds
Yielding stingily,
Inappropriately,
Its kernel of vindication
Of breath and being and yes.
