In The Same Vein ...

Prisoner Of Language

Will time live eternal

or just its retelling

A prisoner of language

whose paradox mined

Dimension in contrast

ill-fated contrition

To look but not touch

—and hope they align

Through A Vacuum

Biologically tethered

time is the demon

Your flesh and your blood

by nature defined

Each tic of the clock

your heart beats in cadence

Dogmatic in method

caught up in the brine

What if your consciousness

took a leap forward

Abandoning reference

erasing the lines

Polarity exits

its jail through a vacuum

Releasing reversing

—becoming sublime

Starting Over

Dig up the foundation

requestion each premise

Wade through the bathwater

the baby must go

A leap when it’s quantum

still subject and object

Fly out of the portal

—rejecting what’s known
