In final acquiesce to the power of the night and resisting the temptation to throw a tantrum like a willful child denied extended play the light of day roller skates towards the bitter end. I stand on the sidelines of passive withdrawal as a witness to the joining of life and death as one and to cyclical maneuvers out of my control. In cryptic code beyond the scope of limited ability lies the scroll of understanding of living versus dead and why the departed forever shine spotlights into shadows of a mind ready to capitulate. And like a sponge I find myself absorbing messages indistinct and vague like my own up to the sun till I can grasp the concept of silent negotiation and how it feels to be enflamed and then denied. I am the sun and the moon rolled into one bearing humanoid features distinctively arranged to grow and change cyclically beyond my control and merge finally into happy twilight time. And I am recyclable when prepared to acquiesce in passivity to repetitive endeavours unless I take control by letting love always flow through life’s so very artful cyclical maneuvers! |
