The mind, minds no sets

Racing thoughts

The game

The heart all set

Changing mindsets
The signs read

Misinterpreted

In depth

Rarely read

Somewhere exists a parallel universe awaiting for us to see.
Somewhere someone is doing the same things as do we.
Somewhere someone is staring at the mirror for the same time as we are.
Somewhere someone has the same questions as we have.
Maybe things that we don't understand are better understood somewhere else.
Maybe things which are peculiar here are normal in some other parallel universe.
Maybe the answers that we are seeking are already found by someone somewhere.
Maybe someone somewhere has the same thoughts that we are having here.
The parallel universe is a thought that might be into existence somewhere.
For the things we think are peculiar are not peculiar everywhere.

Iniquitous priests and cannibals
Absolve
Then feed
Upon childhood dreams

I cannot breathe
Any longer
In this unfiltered
Parsimonious pond

Must
Push back what entangles

Must
Pull away from a myriad of angry souls

Must
Lift this ill-harboring mind free

Agony
He is my constant friend

And
He reminds me
I'm (somewhat) alive

And
That one shiny day
Along the suspicious river Difficult
I will finally slay him
BLT's continued challenge - to write a poem using the Merriam-Webster word of the day, parsimonious.

Success in today's
Business world
Often comes with consequences

Like finding out
The little people
You stepped on to get
To the top
Were your own children

Your words float around me,
A charming melody-
They pay homage to my senses,
Wrap me up, and set me free;
But my heart aches of its own accord
It never leaves me be.

It reminds me of the time before,
Time spent in the dark-
But time with you jars my soul;
I've gotten back my spark.
