Zero, zero
The starting point
A reference point
A concept
A theme
An idea
A place
The start
The start
Origin
Beginning
Then deviation
Direction
Direction
Dedication
Destination
Decision
Degrees of change
Change the ways
Weigh the choice
Choose the path
And follow
Away and back
Bringing with it a storm of distraction
That confounds the ambiguous
And orders the flow
Divides the single
And claims to know
But it’s just a distraction
A chemical reaction
A fatal attraction
An unavoidable experience
What does it take then?
To return
To return
Restart
Rediscover
To realize
The start and end
And all within
Are just the layers to be peeled away
A face
A name
Sounds and voice
Touch and feel will all be wiped away
For zero point
The center
The balance
An understanding of what is
And appreciation of what was
An expectation for what’s to come
And to know it’s happened before
And it will happen again
Wow man, that's a deep poem. Talking about cycles and such? Unbelievable. Truly one of the best poets ever.
