Deep Prevailing Currents

Deep Prevailing Currents

Writing is a journey into the unknown ,
perhaps too much was already said …
Fighting gravity feels like resisting indifference ,
knowing you will tire from the weight of the load

Adaptation is proof and process

almost like running away,

ebb unto flow only to dissipate,

blending away into the vast distant horizon

Vestige carried out into a sea of abstraction

by gravity’s tidal pull,

as if intentionally slipping out

of some moment's threshold untold

Blue rivers keep right on rollin' ,

evanesce the pulsing cadence adrift , all at sea ,
where all Rivers suffuse with vast oceans ,

eternally free ;

swept away,

drifting unanchored ,
with prevailing seasonal currents

gravitational flow

Wash me in the cleansing balm all at sea ,
drifting back to where it started ..
For all one knows there is not that much that changes ,
perhaps we just repeat …
