presently astute

If life could present
itself clearly in time

It would be time well
spent

And not life wasted

As some things that
come in shadow
time and call themselves
the real thing

Realizing it was sure
waste of time and space

If life could present
itself clearly in time

One would have deleted
and omitted time
allocated spent

But in life, it is
a journey worth
living

Learning and leaning
on the swirve of the
night

Just like a
curated time limits
at a museums

Sweet like the
hummingbirds
in the summer

Let it be milk
and honey

In the hearts
of this journey
called life

Let it ring
in the truth
like the light
of the soul

Saying it is
brilliantly
silent like a morning breeze

Stay swift
and captivating
in this planes
of kites in
the air

Let it ring
true the
brilliance
of vulnerability
and honesty

As the pearls
of life bring
in-the depths
rawness
and protection
of all things!!

See you sweet
ancestors as
you lay your
hands on my
soul—

Like the healing
in real time–
