Divergence

8/24/10

Often we assume normality

while feathering our beds

imagining a straight trajectory

form cradle to grave

with only good things

dreamed of in between,

okay, a few bruises,

but nothing that devastates

or catapults into unknown

where everything gets reconsidered,

yet it happens daily,

just 'not to me',

we think until 'ta-da!',

then interpretations flood in

wanting answers, who's responsible

to blame for circumstances,

perhaps seeing accumulative signs

that were ignored, unconsciously

mandating 'soul' created divergence.
