Because I Love Words: Chapter One

In a state of looking
Trying, not desperately, to find a beginning
Striking thoughts like flint
Trying to find that spark
Fondling the abstract
Racing through the ether
As the metronome of my lifebeat
Spur me towards infinity
Pausing only for the sake of effect
As the laws of poetry
Follow me through the infinite space of
Creativity
Permeated by the God element
Saturated with omnipresent vibrancy of realness
I speak with the flow
The flow unending once the trickle started
Racing, gushing with urgency
Filled to overflowing
With the Say
So say!
Say the word and words let the wonders of the manifold, manifest
Wrap your self in the cosmic nest of unending possibilities
Shed yourself that you may find your self
Floating out there beneath the ages
And as the figure 8 of bullshit dissolves and falls to its side
Truth is revealed through infinity
Again infinity,
Yes infinity
The miracle of flight
Gave way to light
And light in turn to thought
And thought begat word
And word begat life
And life begat light
And light begat flight
And this cycle keep going
Until the Un become Inspired
Becomes untethered
Unbound
Unreal becomes surreal
Sound meets rhythm
Verbals harmonizing into a cadence
Of unending eloquence
Quenching thirst
But ever hungry

A pause
At this point a pause…
Not for effect but for a moment.
A moment for the breathless to catch breath
As truth is revealed,
Unraveling without time and space
