Navigating Turns

9/12/09

Keeping a cool head,

calm, collected, clear,

race car driver presence

is a necessary condition

when taking life on,

snaking through sneaky paradox

whose twisty revelations startle,

eyes shine in headlights

blinded as pupils sharpen,

dilate next dark corner,

constantly adapting to conditions,

quick leap into roadway,

or vehicle crossing line,

next, lulled to sleep

from distance being travelled,

forgetting to pay attention

thinking all is familiar

though never really noticing,

taking deeply descriptive notes

described in narration form

searching words to discern

what's really being lived,

otherwise it's one dimensional

just miraculous protoplastic magma

we push ourselves through

stimulating as it touches

senses for navigating turns.
