Culture's Calling

Culture's calling -

be on guard;

bid your eyes to see;

question his mythologies,

then clear your mind and breathe;

invite your intuition's song;

read the sage's words;

greet the quest with gentleness -

enchanting, though absurd.

The Margins of Reality

The Margins of Reality

were narrowly defined

by all of the requirements

that you had been assigned -

that you had been admired -

that you had been implored -

that you had then colluded with

by how you then ignored -

and how you then negated -

and how you then took flight -

and how your eyes grew misty when

the margins came in sight.

Confidence

He comes and goes -

he ebbs and flows -

he leaves without a trace,

but just then when you've lost all hope

you'll find he's back in place.

So, you'll proceed

and you'll succeed

and think you've got it down,

but then find when you need him next

he's nowhere to be found.
