Arcanum

Where’s the boundary

 that separates our existence from

                                           the next?

Where’s that fine hairline

     between sagacity

                                and

                         confusion?

This border, I believe rests deep

            within our minds.

It’s the one that keeps us on the cool side of sane

and hardly ever shows its many masks.

                                                        (legion).

       It surfaces only when triggered or needed

to keep us from the shadowy jewels and the answers

that lay hidden

      behind the

                 I.

Caress its lyrical tongue of wisdom with your inquisitive own.

Master its mystery, the bedlam and natural born deceit.

Her recurring faces with her cantations & rhymes

show the path to tomorrow’s

                             silver dream.

Reach out to touch this dream

and you’ll find yourself lost in mystical union

                                                                             with

                                                              fantasy.

  

You will find yourself in a universe

with no boundaries.
