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
