Paragon Un-World

By DoctorAsh

.




Every time we are born

every time we wake

we re-enter the familiar obscurity ------ of ourselves

as a species

passing in and out

of this phenomena

of reality



                                              so we travel

                                              and we search

                                              and we move

                                              like herds of fish

                                              in the same direction

                                              in which

                                              we most clearly see



so see

yourself

in others

instead

of bleeding

yourself

on me

  • A former member wrote: Perfect way to end it, cheers ~Rich

  • A former member wrote: The period says it all. Hehe...the common herd as fish, a new take on cows. Mmm..."passing in and out of this phenomenal of reality"...indeed, that. Good work, honest and forthright.

    Wow...I have missed reading your concepts of thought through words...this, though short, packs the metaphorical punch of a heavyweight...ending is very strong.

  • A former member wrote: an unveiling. you always remind me to keep my mind and ears open. that last stanza is dynamic.

    All part of the same, and yet separate, well said with a strong finish! Perhaps school of fish, or not? THanks.

  • A former member wrote: A sharp reflection...introspection with a bite...I am accustomed. Reality resides within our perceptions. Always good to see a longtimer post. Thanks for the thought.
