The irresolute intimidation
of time
unreigned
and distorted
yet-the-more for our futile efforts
to corral and tame it
The unpredictable sea, this time
that
ebbs and swells
tossing and sifting those dreams
that once felt so different
The resonant, undying echo
reborn,
reassigned
rediscovered, released
in which life thrives
And our insatiable questing
and
gnawing at the fabric of it.
This is then what brings us here
to what ever cross-roads
this might be.
To all manner of proposal that
lay
before
us
our resolve is seduced and taunted
as if each knows our true heart
As if we had no previous purpose
or knowledge
nor experience
as seems obvious in need
to have brought us thus far
"Tis the personal nature of "vision"
that gives such forcefulness
-- it is in common vision
that we become most personally
involved
Vision is our way to see around
time
to penetrate
the endless-ness
to create and recreate
the texture of our future.
We are thus the future
the
possibilities by which reality
is steered and guided
towards those visions
Or toward ultimate chaos
if the scourge of ancient
and dying thought-forms
is not over-come and cured
This is forsooth a colloid
a nexus,
a bunching of time
the window through which
is reached such higher visions
That which dwells on this threshold
the
hysterical armies of our
outmoded ways
are making one last stand
which we are hurried to transcend.
But not so hurried that we forget
and abandon
that of the past
which has none-the-less served us
well
and
correctly brought us thus-far.
For truly we will become the
keepers
the guardians
of that which was
righteously salvaged
from our often tortured path
Our strength is that future
from
which these visions are
supported
and those
past through whom
spirit was able to manifest
Invincible is the army
which
shoulders its common vision
in a deeply personal way
behind the flag of the future.
