You've Got a Text

¹ In the beginning 
Before the earth aligned
The Alpha and Ending
Breathed life into lines

² Tho' ancient in age
Still sage for today

³ A system of maximum wisdom - -
Maxims and aphorisms (and then some)

⁴ In the dark of night 
A spark of light

⁵ Comfort when we come short
Resort when effort falls short

⁶ Promise conferred upon us
Solace enters to calm us

⁷ Helm when this realm overwhelms 
Anchor when the danger swells 

⁸ Encouragement and nourishment 
In courage just because of it

⁹ The morass harassing the masses - -
Who can get through without a passage?

¹⁰ The focused mixture of scriptures :
A potent potion and elixir 

¹¹ Trolls need to scroll 
Souls need goals 
Unroll The Scroll 
When goals take a toll

¹² Stressed to reflect on what to expect next.
Excuse me, I believe I've received a Text . . .

Every Little Thing


On this plane of Space and Time
Can one afford to remain blind?

No human knows it all.
Just know: dominos fall.

The boomerang returns
Maneuvering its turn.
Acts always come back.
Futures hang on this fact.

How many mini and mega events
Have we unknowingly brushed up against?

Eventuality sets the tone --
Even events aren't set in stone.

Outcomes are hiding.
As yet it's undecided.

Chances are branches 
Extending and bending
Into potentially infinite 
Endings and circumstances.

Decisions are magicians 
Conjuring dimensions.

This and that tactic
Matches any magic.

Certain words spoken
Something done (or nothing) --
Circles surely broken
Portals invisibly opened.

A "theory" that's eerie 
And elusive:
The future is fluid 
And inconclusive.

Cause and Effect?
Cause an effect.
The Select Effect:
Selections affect effects.

Inside this factory of factors
Decide that nothing doesn't matter.

The smallest detail and minute --
God and the devil both in it.

(E)very (L)ittle (T)hing ...
Oh what it brings.

Speed Heals

Destination: DESTINY 
Yesterday is history 
Wishin' is fiction 
Mission: IGNITION 

Start your engine!
Envision the intention 

Rev and
Accelerate
Heaven
Watches and waits

Warp speed ahead
Success is the address 

Tires on fire
Wheels to the wire

Break all the limits
It's a race to the finish

Futuristic fast
The past on blast

Back is a blur
Toward is the word

Failure is so much clearer 
When in the rear-view mirror 

Rims ride on rhythm 
Moments foment momentum 

One thing is given:
Livin' must be driven

Got seed?
God sees
Hallelujah to ya ...
GODSPEED!

Making a Mark

I give up. I give up my decades-long quest to be a [normal] earthly lifeform. I give up the tight grasp on what this world says is important...
