A flash & then darkness too brilliant to see.
A bucket full of universes tossed in the ocean deep.
Nothing & everything simultaneously.
Often times I wonder what it could possibly mean.
I took my query where the river meets the sea.
Countless people doing countless things.
Standing up or on bended knee.
I’ll keep asking around to see if anybondy knows what it means.
Time tried to tell me but his breath stinks.
I’ll inquire with the angels next time I’m on the brink.
I’ll shout to the heavens: “What do you think?”
But try as I might, I might never know what it means.
