Every day has an elementary element,
learning boring things that apply way later.
Try diving from a crowded dock into a tumultuous ocean.
Measure the proportion of possibilities,
swallow risk like the water you tread.
Driving upwards ambition for consideration,
watching others swing for fears.
Stability aches in resting places
and stagnation settles in like fog.
Patience pulls from both ends.
The gap between will surprise as it trips us.
Infatuated with the force of change
headfirst along the existing fissures
occupation evolves. The self stales and
the uncertainty of everyone’s forecast
exposes light to new growth.
Fight for the unknown?
No, seeing proof eludes,
time squeezes in the distance,
astounds while seeding for sprouts.
The breeze from outside wafts memories of pursuit
and urges to explore that from beyond these confines.
Reach for unwelcome company flinging thoughts
whizzing past each other to descend on the cares kept unshared
feeding oneself with interest.
Clawing back predictions,
hoping the best responses replace worse expectations.
