Words and the Sublime

It has been quite sometime. Please excuse my absence for those of you who read these postings.  It feels as though I'm floating into a journey of the unknown. And, in a lot of ways, I am.  Its tones are quite melodious, a swim in the abyss, a kiss from the sublime, and a wave to come towering over, dragging all patrons back out to sea!  Stirring thoughts, unanswered concepts, and the trumpet sounds. So wonderful.  An ocean of chaos churning all of the wrongs and rights. Trying to get my feet back on the sand. Trying to feel that comfort of walking on the known land.  Guitars, trumpets, altos and tenors, thank you for fueling this dimension!  I am reluctant to escape this place even though it has been riddled with nothingness. Nothingness meaning, there's no sustaining force for gain.  The opportunities seem boundless and I am shackled to a chair of torment.  I'm getting lost in this plight.  So much depressing news, foreclosures, joblessness, wars, and this I'm still writing.  

A word, a call, an opportunity, is all!
the organ is eery and boundless
balanced, bruised, and standing tall,
its these neverending voices that'll hound us
getting lost in the shuffle
some get crowned and some stay down
it is as Darwin said, "survival of the fittest,"
for the angels beckon, please come with us!

it's comforting but not the time
snowflakes fall and hit the ground unheard
while staring out the window the bluejay is the bird
the tabla sounds and lost is the theme
so tranquil to eradicate the vandal that taints
the wretched ways are not dealt with;
and its maddening.  he's omnipresent and therefore,
the judge!

the screeching horns help dissolve the unpleasantries
bringing forth a new wave of energy (yet to be determined),
the feeling was like that of an unconscious walk,
you know your walking but something's propelling you!
in the moment, on the runway, the timber aides this;
it felt as though levitation was taking place, very aware,
looking around, focused, and nothing seemed out of place!
nothing is truly solved but there is sanctuary in this new found space!
