Doors
Doors
Opening with force
closing silently
or with calamity
sometimes opening
so quietly
so slowly
one strains to notice
the change.
The universe is expanding.
at record speeds.
There are concepts that change
more quickly than
light speed.
Terrifying infiniteness.
Nothing is insignificant.
Each thing is a link in the chain
of consequence-
Mind your way.
Peek through a keyhole?
It doesn’t work that way.
All doors lead to the same path
for everybody, does it matter the way?
“The pawns and the kings return to the same box
when the game is put away.”
Lead me to flowers in the spring.
Lead me to the music that rings.
Lead me to the sweet smells
that the fruits of labor
bring.
Stop!
A moment, please…
Let me leap into your arms.
Carry me over the thresholds
of change.
Be the link, the unwavering constant
despite infinite change.
