Discovering Home

by Odin odin@aflx.com — Read all 3,869 poems by Odin odin@aflx.com

To look around one can’t help but wonder when, if ever, the hordes of vacuous mind-sets will evolve and finally appreciate their sentient ability as a gift.

Discovering Home


The sun rises
like any other day
except...

Today's awakening erupts

Innate calendars run asunder
you're finally free
no more corralling of instinct
no more downside to curiosity
no more programs to die by

Infinity calls

Shackles fall free
unhappiness exits
inner flames cleanse bodily disease
smoke and cloud transport molecules of ecstasy
to form anew

You run
then spring
then...

Catching the first breeze to nowhere
to everywhere
to schedules unknown
to existence sans time
where chance be not tabled
worth be not an issue
day and night be one
converging all that was
to all that is
or will ever be

The eyes of consciousness have opened
Welcome home

Something must be wrong with me today, I actually understood your poem. Don't tell me I didn't and give me an inferiority complex man, shit. I haven;t had a home for sixty-five years. I don't care anymore. I sometimes thing that home and al that goes with it are fabricated b.s., intended to control the masses, although from what I see forming as cohesion these days makes home very desirable. I live alone. Most of the time I like it like that.
