The primordial darkness penetrates
each quickening soul as all embracing
nurturing warmth gives way to reaction…
light, sound, air…
The profound severance of body from
body, of soul from soul, stimulates the
organs, the senses, the very essence
of existence – chemical reactions,
interchange of stimuli – awareness…
touch, feel, taste…
The intrinsic understanding – bonding…
love, friendship, trust…
The calm resolve, achievement and learning,
independence bought and the daily grind…
work, disappointment, hope…
Onward the restless forward motion,
souls grow dim with daily fare, discarding
years in ceaseless abandon as the past
stretches out in oceans of endless care.
Now alone, time rushes by so slow, thoughts
rush in – stagnate. The primordial dark
penetrates the light once more, the sense dims…
touch, smell, taste…
Inertia seals our fate.
A lightening flash and all resolves to stillness, to silence.
Symmetry fulfilled, the circles now complete.
