Don’t try to make sense of it.
Yes, it’s intense from time to time
and we are but a fleshy dance
of molecules and fire, easily
thrown by unexpected rhythms
and long, twisted rhymes. It’s okay.
Sooner or later a moment
will come along to stop you
in your tracks, snatch your breath.
jolt you awake, astonished.
And you will remember, and go on,
grateful, regardless.
