Destiny calling
As a
child fantasies devoured me with infinite possibilities
daring astronaut, persuasive president to poet laureate
money, education, discrimination, these weren’t in my vocabulary yet
it was a crystal connection to my soul that answered
those haunting words now a barren whisper in the cosmos.
Struggling with my homeostasis, enzymes explode
criticizing encouragement, the screams shock me
a telepathic reply of satisfaction with complacency
destiny screeches at me, annoyed I hum violently
my ears throb from the molecular commotion.
I
longingly fondle the destiny of this weeks best seller
pristine pages freshly transcribed, omnipotent shell with flattering
text
admiring the authors biography, the sight of an the ISBN
sacred desires flood uncontrollably, faster than I can refute
passion reverberates throughout my veins.
Dreams
become the most formidable test of the journey
drenched in escapism, their perceived qualities tease your psyche
fate, premonitions, signs, bombard with inferences of my ascent
continuous opportunities desperately beckon, holistic beacons resonate
energetic transformations genetically implant the blueprint.
Releasing boundaries, I float to another plane only inches from where
I sit
refreshed, invigorated, awakened, my breath synchronized with nature
limbs relax, except for the smile I can’t control
overwhelmed by the peaceful realizations of my voyage
I resuscitate in life’s currents.
Christened in blessed waters
enlightened by osmosis
His echoing voice ignites, and I repeat the message
pen to paper my mantra is embraced
and I remember.
