Facing Forward
In the morning dark
<
p style=”font-family:’Helvetica Neue’, Arial, sans, sans-serif;”>Intense rain’s forceful pounding
<
p style=”font-family:’Helvetica Neue’, Arial, sans, sans-serif;”>Rattling gutters
<
p style=”font-family:’Helvetica Neue’, Arial, sans, sans-serif;”>
<
p style=”font-family:’Helvetica Neue’, Arial, sans, sans-serif;”>I awoke this morning to an intense downpour. More like the Philippines or Florida than Seattle.
Flickering briefly
Lightning burns across the sky
Jagged movements blur
Updated: spell check got me, changing “lightning” to “lightening”
Strangeness surrounds us
So much unbelievable
Such a crazy life
Mindless reaction
<
p style=”font-family:’Helvetica Neue’, Arial, sans, sans-serif;”>Chasing after to-dos
<
p style=”font-family:’Helvetica Neue’, Arial, sans, sans-serif;”>Lost within motion
Confusion masses
Up against the edge of mind
Sanity a mess
Hanafubuki
Cherry blossom snow falling
This gentle spring breeze
Within us echoes
Of creation’s firey song
Spring’s ruminations
To the new we switch
Oh, then a technology glitch
For the past we’ll itch
Numbers flowing fast
Elegant computations
Joyous creations
Once I dreamt of boats
A vision of opulence
Now just nausea
