Inexorable Evolution

 

 

Falling toward other beginnings
Choices unbridled

 I knew

 

Warm hands met me
Waiting sounds

 I heard

 

Wanting
As ripened fruit

I awoke

 

Soft urges
Anxious voices
Holding my inborn stillness
I traveled

 

With cries of birth
I decreed my death
Sun did shine
Rains did com

I lived

 

Collecting earth-time
Singing its experience
Clock hands began their hesitation
Movement ever cautious

Forward the only choice
  I was ready

 

Archives now labeled
Summoned filings completed
Made of my heart

Made of this life
A final expansion
Into the continuum

 

Inexorable Evolution

The world around us carved by evolution certainly does seem like a well ordered place. But I believe you're writing about a life, and a lifetime of rapid change. It is always in later age that one has the time to gradually put everything in order if it is going to be passed on to the generations that follow. I believe that's what you're driving at with these exquisite words.

Such an alluring invitation to continue "Into the continuum"! You've got it all going on here, Odin! You are a survivor!

Love ya!
