Between reason and
nonsense there
resides a ravine.
Banter and bellows,
obnoxious,
diluted and fooled.
Chasing, craving, shaping their lens
of what seems to be.
Does all fit carefully
or do we
just see what we see?
The order of nature.
The nature of order.
Cacophony and euphony:
a harmonious pair.
One can’t escape the
loop looping—
Exploding from nothing
and then it began,
a process we still don’t understand
or command.
Rational chaos and nonsensical order.
All fits carefully,
always changing,
remaining and breaking,
sustaining and quaking.
Up and away we go now,
falling around the sky.
We’re dizzied by the cyclone
jumbling our minds.
Losing all sense of reason,
parting with the absurd,
flailing until we grasp the Earth.
