Minding the Gaps
By cadymae
I bend down and widen the
top of the fence I'm walking
Each
useful thought
is applied underfoot
Every faint proof shellacked
into place with surety and a nod
Til I am trodding a path
built
astraddle many worlds
which contains its own gravity
a logic resting at cross-strengths
upon the gravity of
other worlds.
The space in the gaps is the most interesting.

Bri nailed it....It's the sincerity of your pieces that really makes them shine so bright. It's like all your pieces are saying, "These are my truths, what are yours?"

We all walk fences between different worlds, and some make the transition better than others, while some forever live in denial. Cheers!

This brings to mind a strengthening of ones foundation along the path one walks yet curiosity can get the better of us and make said foundation a bit shaky until one strengthens it again. The challenges of life and how it can so easily trip us up at times....... A wonderful pen.

mmm... minding the gaps indeed..... there is a sincerity here, a seriousness given to one's thoughts... and these 'worlds'..... how they forge and influence one's life; how can one not place their full attention to where one had been, to where one is going...? ..."a logic resting at cross-strengths upon the gravity of other worlds" ...how wonderfully worded. Thank you for this full and intelligent read...... most appreciated. ~b
