Unquestioned (+1)

Can imagination be taught,

or intuition defined

Can wishes be repackaged

as hope

Can children rekindle

a dream never fired

Can the past and future

reverse

Can what is and what isn’t,

forever be

Can a savior fall victim

to faith

Can tomorrow choose the past

over today

Can the reasoned excuse

die from intent

Can the moment once noted,

forever last

Can there be language

with vision denied

Can the wisdom of sages,

in playpens be found

Can the answers unquestion

—themselves

(University Of Pennsylvania: January, 2020)

In Flames

Like a moth to the flame we journey,

forever wondering why

Never knowing what but only where

—our destiny on fire

(Dreamsleep: January, 2020)
