A Simmering Geyser

The natural carlessness of the young man

is as strong as a geyser

But as time marches forward

and he becomes older

he is made wiser


We incandesce with fervor as we get sorted

and like the receding of a once strong wave

we simmer as the sand drops down the hourglass

perceptions change like a sundial 

and convictions unfurl 


Maturation of the mind comes as the body realizes it's impermanence

then the body see's the mind as part of the body for the first time
