CONSEQUENTIAL EVIDENCE
so naked
in my hunger
for that
i know
but do not
live
for all my
seeds
of passion
never sown
reaped
nor fulfilled
for all the
still born
dreams undone
ive brought into
this world
for all my
misspent
good intentions
years of fallow
love unshared
for all the
words
ive written
in these slippery
language spills
only fleeting
glimpses
ghostly whispered
shadows
oblique impressions
captured here
whether ever
to be read
much less
understood
perhaps only
silent ripples
left to mirror
to faintly echo
some essence
of inner mystery
within this
mystery
that i am
expressed in
all this
rambling
run off
inkage
purged
from open
pen in hand
released from
somewhere
else within
even more
vague
than this
little bit of
consequential
evidence
i leave
behind
to mark
my aimless
trail
here in
my continued
restless journeys
only
temporal
passing
through
this nowhere
place
of empty
space
in timeless
time
where
it seems
perhaps
as i now
suspect
i may have
somehow
gotten
my thoughts
my words
or myself
just a little
bit lost
or too
tangled up
once again
in yet
another
unforeseen
too tightly
twisted
little
rabbit hole
here in my
presently
mindless
illusory
little
mind
where
only
now
am i
slowly
coming
to sense
and see
that perhaps
the simple
act of
penning
this little
poem
was the
only way
out of
the twisted
little
rabbit
hole it
soon
enough
so
unwittingly
became
before
i had
even
begun
it
so what
does that
even mean
and where
does it
leave me
now
perhaps
nowhere
and nothing
more than
a tiny
little
reflective
puddle
left in
a shallow
pot hole
in the
road
quietly
mirroring
a gray
cloudy sky
left
in the
peaceful
after wake
of a
sudden
brief
passing
rain
or in
other
words
something
one can
either
choose
to pass
right on
by
and ignore
or
pause
for a
moment
or two
to reflectively
gaze upon
in silent
wonder
or thought
or to
simply
let go
and get
lost in
just
as i
have
done
here
now
