Thought’s landscape — how it changes
how the current rearranges
deepens here, deposits there
accenting flows, directing rivulets
Thought follows patterns
in its swift recursions
pushing at the rock
wearing deeper channels
As it flows swifter
it may push
over formerly dry edges
trip itself, dislodging stones
fall into a new course
which then in mounting rushes
it can follow
And the force of it
occasions new attention
And the joy of it
invokes a new dimension
And the pulse of it
thunders the perfection
of another way to think and feel
another thing
now known as real.
