Tea Leaves & Butterfly Wings


This present moment -
A protrusion,
From dimension to dimension,
Broadcasted onto a televised projection,

Sometimes seemingly
Beyond belief,
To some -
Oblivious

To others,
Nevertheless
Continuing to progress
Like prophecy

At least
In appearance,
Or,
Something

Unavoidable & predictable
At the very least,
In
Hindsight.

The chaos makes sense
At a future moment
In time -
To some,

And then to all.

But then -
To others,
It was known
All along,

Glance askance,
Sideways tilt expression
At the onset
Of the sunrise

That results in sunset.

Author's Note
Maybe the times were always strange... We can only really know our time, our age, in that most intimate of ways.

I just watch...  And see what I see.

What is most confounding is when you may know & not be able to change.

But then...  Knowing alleviates all, ultimately.
