Indecision?
Are you afraid
because every day
I wake a new color
and every knight
mounts a star of mine
until it shatters insanely
sending waves of sparks
to ride
chaotic slides
of change?
Insecurity?
Are you hiding
fighting
because
every smile
coveys difference
and every noon
my joy
climaxes
with charisma and goes with ease
from first person
to the conversational tone
of change?
Progression?
Are you confused
because by sun up
I’ve sung
a thousand different verses
a gradient map
of notes
and crescendos
performing a balance
of thought
that implies
stability
melted with
the journey
of change?
Resolution?
Are you enviably
grounded
while I am elegantly
not?
So explain to me
stability
as you would explain
to Quixote.
Is it the tree
that neither grows
nor dies?
Stability,
the brick fortress that
neither restores
nor crumbles?
Stability,
the absence of wind
the presence of nothing?
Stability.
Your mythic lie.
Your honorable quest.
Your mask
for fear
in ignorance.
Fear of
something as simple
as change.
I leave you now
with my pity
and nothing more.
A gorgeous, showy, flamboyant poem here!
Excelencia!
Your words are like the taming of a great horse for the knight.
Easily, the syllables, with their loose reins, they call upon all transient poets.
Viva Cervantes!
Peace
