I’m not here to figure out the whys
Or even if I have the right
To excuse the things that transpire
As they happen so to me

For if I could simply cipher
Relating that which is meant to be
Against all odds of occurrence—
Going through my sphere of banded time,
My goal would be to observe the unexpected—
Expecting its arrival on bonded soil
Never to remember its reshuffling
To my essential soul

Suspecting only convergence in detail
Posing as happenstance
Egregious though in exercise
Countermanded only by unseen evidence
Knotting itself on faith’s hinges

Biding its time in echo’s floes
Indicting its power as it grows
Timeless in virtue and ageless in pose
Seeking my soul, wherever it goes

wonderfully written!  How I can relate to this, always wanting to know what is ahead, yet, wanting the surprise of life!  Eloquently written!
