Imminence has grown
Pit falling, bending to light
Knowing the bottom, the pathway to see
The love given, the love lost, a ratio of blood
Where do we find ourselves now?
Never at the median, anti colliders
Dangerously off-grid, blunt intersections
Horizonal infractions
Out of touch, spectrums apart
Hills of grey once called a heart
Are we ungrateful?
Or are we only great until its hard?
Never doing time,
rarely dealing cards
Barely lifting heavy parts
Imminence has grown
Beyond the shelves of oak and steel
Beyond what the brain pines
Beyond what every fiber feels
Corner webs, cast with precision
Corners for tall legs to live in
Supposed prisons arraying decision
Intelligence living and giving
But we kill, we disarm
Accuse beauty of harm
Fail to right what seems wrong
As the innocent perish
In innocence, we cherish
What a cost, trading armor
For what’s soft, sowing karma
Seek not answers when in needing
Need for nothing, attract abundance
Be abundant, without needing
Imminence has grown
Like a seasonal flower, learning rust
never knowing itself
or how it’s grown
It lives in shadow, equal sun
Sways where wind goes
Doesn’t want
Sings his stems, pale roots of hair
on a crown too big to fare
Free as sails on ships that flare
Flowing outwards, safe or sound
Heaven bound
Barely lost, unsure if found
Gripping not
At what is fleeting
Imminence has grown
the widths of bulging hemispheres
For good must grow in peril
Without present danger
Danger can’t teach a kindness
Kindness lives beyond a need
Kindness hungers not for feed
Knows not circumstance nor greed
As what must be, lives on in jest
Laughing as all harm decries
Whilst the good stays good
It was before
And always would
Not for self or cause’ it should
Does not expect, deny, beguile
What’s misunderstood...
It never could
