Marbles...

---

Mankind
simply marking time,
in time,
the zones, between light, darkness;
in the sea of humanity
so many face stare,
mysterious...
once spirited, clear, illuminated
like a boy guiding ships,
along shores...
of tranquillity;

is the robin's song the fifth element?
The voice in the wilderness
naked...
in snow, creating snow angels;

So many elements stir
on the easel:
love sweat tears
blood hate pain...
framed on the museum walls, captured
pigment, crammed colour on canvas.
Picasso's haunted
haunting look,
Madonna beguiles...
the bones, dust destined to walk on, pass.
Chaos, man earth,
marbles...
rolled by the boatman
through the cosmic swell;

is it so strange to ask?
has another,
the other side of time, found,
a black hole...
