Enchanted Abyss

Entered into an abyss
realizing that unknown
was silent,

An awakening
happened when the madness
occurred

An internal investment
that inclined the
enlightened to
rise with an awareness and power–

the conceptual thinking
that transcends the wise–
while looking at the totality
of things–

Originality has succumbed
to the deviant claws
of imbeciles–

With the illusion
of ego, victimhood,
and entitlement.

Percolating with the
unrealistic desires
while parading the righteousness
with no shame–

While trying to push the
return button, regretting
when the time can
never touch refresh–

Ideation was real
and sad,
but once done
it was over–

Logistically it was unreal–
the feathers stimulated
feelings that fainted
like the winds–

The parting of
the Red Sea–
left one stranded
on the other side
as one anticipated and yearn for another chance-

Evaluated with
the essence
of self-reflection
to detox–

Unwarranted debris,
illusion, corruption,
deception and any
corroded salacious
advances–

Four seasons of
dragging, while
anticipating for the unseen–

But complacency
rejected all the malicious
tactics that you held–
but never can be manifested–

The warning came in different ways–
and all one can say–
goodbye, as one starts
anew–
