after such a long pause -
with the escape of levity,
or in backing a cause?
how do you begin
again
what was not given an end,
but only suddenly faded
and fizzled out of conscious view,
the practice of pondering
left to unspoken thoughts,
the previously unquestioned
order of how life is lived
now all at once a congested
mental and emotional
traffic jam -
- no clear warning
only
WHAM!
here i am,
a way
you never imagined
you'd have to know,
here i go,
all the comfort of
the old routine
for this new
Unforeseen
that still hasn't shown
all it's cards
here we are,
the same us
in unexplored terrain
that is unrecognizable
and yet somehow
still the same,
just more cumbersome, perhaps,
but, looking carefully,
with no lack
of blessings
just as unexpected
and at first
unbelievable
"inconceivable" is defined
anew every day,
nothing is twice the same,
and still nothing has really changed -
here we are,
still infants
in eternity,
finding new ways
to adapt to
these new days
that to tomorrow you and me
will be naught
but memories
