Starbark

I often wonder as I wander through wonder receptive to the signs projected from minds mines exploding in invincible imagination invisible like cloak and dagger I search for the truth whether it be within me portrayed without my boundaries leaping bounds offering sounds collected in the skies daisy dairies harvested in the sea fermented in vermouth causing the tides to stagger I lay naked in the clouds relaxing in the dilly dallying sun basking in the knowledge of the universe soaking in the wisdom of the watery breeze fluently speaking telepathiconversations uttering raindrop runes reading the realms for telling of forecasts faceted in fascination I ask a simple question where do I begin to find where I began sifting through the soil of my soul scraping the soil off my soles at the threshold of the Sun I jump in feet first and become purified in the pools of swirling spiraling solace chapter 1 in salvation rewriting my past lives contribution stepping into eternities elevation becoming submersed in loves great basin the reality of what everyone considers an illusion illuminated on the paths of another dimension reincarnated in my own waves of retribution smiling as I'm cut by the shards of every solution leaving it up to me to draw up the conclusion and speak it to the masses in mass confusion I am NOT just a speaker I am NOT just a teacher I am NOT just a leader I am a seeker lighting the way for those who wish to catch up
