Synesthesia
Everything was becoming like a scene
on film
I was reaching out
touching the sun
It was one more time in D minor
The notes were about
well
everything
They pounded their way though my heart
THIS musical score
reverberation in my soul
We were staring at it
A wave was approaching
And it was very bright
It must have been a million degrees
And it felt like it was all going to crash
I opened my heart
All the notes were the same
All the soundtracks were speaking to me
So much running in the background
They all meant the same thing
Going fearlessly towards the light
One of the sounds was like a picalo
It was like someone banging on the icicles
And when the notes came out
They were, again, the same
I don't think I could tell you any more
Not what to do
I just wanted to keep staring at it
Just for a few minutes longer
The bright light was swirling
The mist was rolling over me
Someone put their hand out
The light was calling us now
Everything became white
You winced at the same time it over took you
or just screamed
Everything was poetry
everything brahman
I discovered nothing
It came to me when I stopped
It was always there
-
Everything else I wrote might just be for page two
The background after you have said everything
and nothing important
So I paused , filled in the blanks
Read it all agin, it wasnt even there
-
The smoke was getting kind of harsh now
My throat burned with every swallow
It was long, slow poetry...
Your forgot until those few moments where you recognized the rhyme
Your whole life story a singular event
Leading you here to this moment
This opportunity
One reflection
The last wave was building in intensity
It had a spirit as it came towards me
The ground came up beneath me as I rumbled forward
That thin-ness, the wave
Stacking taller and taller
Full of energy
I stared him in the eyes
They were crazy and determined
There was no turning back
NO turning away
We were facing it
That reflection
Dark and luminous
Black holes in the middle of all that blue
Deep down inside they went like kaleidoscopes forever
Pure Light
In the final moments we were not even afraid anymore
It was just
Awe
