change

happens at many levels, the superficial, the deep, the middle and most look to the surface - see how behaviors transform, when situations morph; and yet beneath the core is intact: the heart strong still loudly playing yesterday's spot light the middle cracks open in moments; silence an epiphany - a poke or cry quickly the moment passes and like a surface water disturbed; each wave canceling out another till only smoothness shows ... ... the mountain bears on the shoulders giving a shrug slides into ravines deep: the self clothes in images nascent, a harbinger of inner states - inquiring minds choose to talk about fair weather. then the calm demeanor splits open and a jaw opens so wide for mountains of angst come vomiting out - replayed. the tenacious mind is crafty reenacts scenes: keeps mute. smiles. and all everyone does these days is smile and nod back; recesses deep, convulses as one burning heart grasps for golden days long gone.
