The 365 Project Pt. II

what is spectacular
is that we can’t see
a thing we cannot
comprehend the
simplest forgotten
speck
everything is born
from unimaginable
complexity and
strangeness none
of which we should
ever understand it
would only ruin it
all for magic and
ritual nightmares and
myths dance song
lore and dreams
of returns should be
all that is necessary
everything is better
unknown where we
define ourselves by
our ability to imagine
wonder or forget
apathy separates
the living from the
dead
poets be shamans
of dark and light lead
us into mystery and
awe sharpen the edges
of fears and bury
sunlight in our bellies
paint beetles in silver
iridescence and keep
the slowly twisting
vortex of dreams
spinning
