Inside Out (+1)

Last night

I was able

to outgrow myself …

again

for the very

first time

 

Life was unspun

in the moment

relayed

where tomorrow

and yesterday

rhyme

 

Competing with

the future

the sky

and the moon

my wandering

complete

 

Turning my

destiny

inside out

my nature

expanding

—replete

The Mousai

 

There’s a well

in your meadow

only music can fill

 

It’s deeper

 and wider

and calls to you still

 

With its bucket

overflowing

and rope fastened tight

 

Sweet melodies   

waiting

— to quench your delight
