EXTRA UNIVERSAL HOLD OVER
The knowledge of anything
on any level
changes everything
so much of this
is his fault
the inconsiderate back handed slap
I have now irreversibly numbed
to its gross tickling sting
nothing is ever that easy
you should know that by now
the path only gets harder
as you go along
unless you focus on
and draw forth
the limitless realms of peace
and pure observation
and at least I don't choose
to identify with
the rotting standards
of those who have hurt me
though Lord of chaos I may be
and evermore become
the scattered twisting bundle
of teary eyed joys
blaring a fuse bursting
bulb shattered blackout
is the tornado which
carries off
the dry mouthed seeker
unto a smooth cooling pool
where he may draw
at his leisure
