Past Path Passage Now Present In Future Presence

by David Lester Young — Read all 1,103 poems by David Lester Young

All my life, I have been looking forward, and forking up. Maybe now, it is time to look back, and walk down to the see shore, where the heartbeats raises and falls with the tides.

Live can bring on death sense tenses
Or being in Poet Tree ~~~ infinity presence

Poetry doubts create thy fallacy, perpetuating perpetuity presumed failings.

Past Path Passage Now Present In Future Presence

Took path forward
and upward
eon’s a go
It now been
barren extinguished,
of fertile fruition
Present fork intersection,
now tends to lead
down ward
Where new decisions
will be made,
anew passage ways.

Guttered in past
rut complacency,
life dost bygone decays
Amid stationary isolation,
a gist closed in,
mislaid hope
Days become
yester daydreams,
washed over tired reign
Time ‘n again
repeating itself,
one becomes despondent.

Without future branches,
one wastes away,
wilted mid finger tips
That fail to tap dance
key strokes,
alight enlightened possibilities
Smothering quicksand coagulation,
dead end choke-holds
fill paths
Where pliable options,
become human lobe stiff,
cerebral atrophy.

Dawn waits,
dusk awaits,
right foot being hesitant,
left stands firm
Time slowly pivoting
from past certainty,
to future uncertainty
One walks down
from the mountain,
into wide valley recesses
Toward see shore tides,
bearing new tidal paths,
beckoning foraging.

Past Path Passage:
roadblocks,
set in-sole routine mundane
gut wretch patterns
Be left behind
societal constrictions,
one finds Freedom
flight expressions
Brittle bones chill
quivers anew spring,
back to bud blossom
living sunshine smiles
Where every brilliant passage is:
Now Present In Future Presence.

A nice change of pace. To get in the race, you have to socialize a bit. For every comment you receive on a poem you must comment on at least 5. Poets who do not engage fellow poets grow stale and entrenched in their ideas.
