Whose Heart?

Whose Heart?

 

Whose ears did I hear with

what hands wrote this

 

Not mine or yours

the challenge of attention

 

Everything revolts

the flower from the seed

the chicken from its egg

 

This older man of what

the youth wrought

 

Am I to ignore it

let those waves beat me down

year after year all those imitations

A baby crawls a child runs the little lies

 

Rules of transdimensional hopscotch

or when we played push hands in the dark

but always saw the outcome leaving questions

 

Whose time

What mind

 

Walls become means of communication

not just boundaries singing defiance again

and again forlorn hopes and growing pains

 

The clouds care not for flood

The sun is oblivious to hot

 

and you deny

our ears our hands our eyes

one heart.

Everything revolts

 

Love that. Life as revolution.....

 

SUPPOSEDLY, King Louis asked, "Is it a revolt?". A Minister replied, "No, Sire: a revolution." Apt....

 

Rock On, dr_con.....

Makes me think of the individual as being like one cell of a compound eye.. having an awareness of the progression of all life and trying to interpret the overall picture. G.
