One continues to occupy
different spaces.
One continues to sway through
dimensions.
Like a large heavy metal
pendulum that swings in all directions.
You wait for when it will
next swing your way.
Some times you doubt it ever
will.
And so you wake up, walk,
run, fly to find the pendulum.
"Why is it taking so long to swing back
towards me?
I have been waiting for far
too long,
I am going to find the large
heavy metal pendulum.
I will make it swing back
my way!"
But
You have vacated
your place.
Your position.
Where if you
patiently wait,
The winds will
support the large heavy metal pendulum to swing your way.
However,
Is it the
pendulum you were waiting for?
Is it the good
tidings you pray it brings with it that you yearn for?
Excitedly
You watch it
coming your way.
You feel the
rush of the wind on your face.
A wisp of hair
comes undone.
You wipe if off
your face.
You look around.
To see. Dry-mouthed
and wide-eyed
Hoping.
Yearning.
Expecting.
Heart beating.
Nervous.
Anxious.
You watch and
wait.
And
No new tidings.
No gifts.
No surprises.
Nothing!
Just the large
heavy metal pendulum swinging
As the gods’
command.
As the Universe
pushes it to.
Nothing!
That is when you
think,
Maybe moving is
not a bad thing after all.
Maybe I will
follow the swing of the pendulum.
To where it goes
when am waiting.
You travel.
In search of a
familiar strangeness of a place you think your soul inhabits.
