Unambiguous

Today we’re here, tomorrow we’re gone
Hourly transitioning, merging with the environment
Vanishing memories after we’re dead
Such an unambiguous event of life

Do you know where I came from?
Do you know where we’re going?

Intricate process of simple worms devouring the flesh
One second pumping blood, then it just rests
Forever and eternally asleep
The body was just a carrier of the human’s essence

Essence, spirit, biological processes
All riddles intermingled with each other
Vaguely we make each day count
Fighting to live our footprint in the washing shore

Do you know where I came from?
Do you know where we’re going?

Wow, one of my absolute favorite words ambiguopus..........

great poem too but now if you could just write about coagulate and reconfigure ( two other favorite words of mine as I simply adore how they roll off the tongue when we say them) then I'd be in in a poetic free fall of gargantuan ecstasy.......... simply because I have never been able to naturally blend those words into my own poetry. I'd have a snickering reader fit if I could read it in another poet's work......... was just a thought no pressure.......... winks, most sincerely, Melissa Lundeen........
