Wide Awake Slumber

Here in the now

The world rotates

Cyclical

As we were told in primary

Science

Suddenly exacting

Life’s gravity compels

Our mind to recognize

We are physically together

Electronic conduits

Now offer symbiosis

Yet high frequencies

~

– Data Jargon Lingo Slang Slurs –

~

Racist, piggish, ugly, name-calling

Entitlements interfere

With waves of gracious love

We live each moment

Aware that our physique

Measures against …

Hers, his, their design; our blessings

Gifts of fortune

Notions of peace

Respond only to initial tensions

Then allow redemption to exist

~

We have to fight the war to feel the ease

Why battle?

What compels our lives to respond?

When can we become fully aware?

Who is it that guides our passions?

When is wisdom the eventual outcome?

~

Sleeping while awake suggests distant

Turmoil can be forgotten; dreams remain.
