Mathematics ~ Pic and a Word Challenge #251
The mathematics
Of my conscious mind
Can be so very much more
Of my conscious mind
Can be so very much more
Ruthless
Than nature’s organic expressions
The subtle calculations
Of an incomprehensible unconscious
Little wonder
We have become such an affliction
On an incalculable beauty
Choices
I make choices
Sometimes they’re wrong
Sometimes they’re right
Sometimes they’re wrong
Sometimes they’re right
Sometimes I know
Which way they’re going to go
Even before I make them
More often they go
The way they’re going to go
Long before I see the right or the wrong
I make choices
Sometimes I realize
Sometimes I don’t
Until they’re in the rear view mirror
I
Sometimes
This body
Like a prison
And I
Caught inside
Ponder on the things
This body has done
Without my approval
Without my conscience
This body
Like a prison
And I
Caught inside
Ponder on the things
This body has done
Without my approval
Without my conscience
Sometimes
This body
Like a trophy
And I
Caught inside
Ponder on the things
This body has done
Beyond my ability
Beyond my creation
And I
Wonder I
At who am I
Whether this body is I
Or some other I
Capturing the Finite in Infinity
A shallow lake
A rippled mirror
The forest slumbers
On its bed of rock
Beneath a cloudy blanket
A rippled mirror
The forest slumbers
On its bed of rock
Beneath a cloudy blanket
And I
Might have driven by
Then this moment lost
To the forever
Of infinite unconscious
Current ~ Pic and a Word Challenge #97
With
Against
Over
Bypass
Against
Over
Bypass
All the ways I’ve learned
To make my way in life
Unconsciously, they become habit
Forgetting the current running through it all
I remind myself
Stand on the shore
Breathe in the quiet
Observe the current
Hardened Shell
Cutting through the hardened shell
Of cognitive dissonance
And confirmation bias
Reveals a frightening realm
Of ill-defined objects
And unresolved detail
Of cognitive dissonance
And confirmation bias
Reveals a frightening realm
Of ill-defined objects
And unresolved detail
But better to crawl through
To this wilderness of consciousness
Than remain unconscious
Battering the cage
Of my own ignorance
Tides
I am a creature
Of my own thoughts
Of my own will
Of my own choice
Of my own thoughts
Of my own will
Of my own choice
Or so I think
Reminded by
The tides of seas
The tides of light
As moon circles I
As I circle sun
Not choice
Nor fate
All that is
Circles round
In ebb and flood
Thin Veneer
I saw the Earth
Photographed from space
And was startled
By the whisper-thin atmosphere
Photographed from space
And was startled
By the whisper-thin atmosphere
I live on a smooth
Round globe
Of rock and water
With just a thin veneer of gas
