Oblivion
forces
maps of universes
that run the four corners
to burn, swim, fly, and squirm
our inheritance
forces
tie everything
together through
synergy
working together
like a complicated
chemistry balancing
synthetic energy
maps of universes
draw out these forces
that combine and redefine
bounds and limits
of reality
in a mystery
all their own
running four corners
eventually we'll
find ourselves
looking forward or back
wondering what happened
in regret or wishing
for more of same
burning, squirming, swimming, and flying
we don't seem to remember
our presence in the present,
paths having slapped back
with each step forward.
but we can be grateful
and make use of what we have
Inheritance
ties
to combine and redefine
in regret and wishes
the presence in the present
path slapping back
