words

all these thoughts in a rush
thinking themselves into existence

they condense in to a field
permeating the igneous matter of my animal soul,
infusing it with power, certainty, rhythm,
the triad opens the mind like a portal

in the dream i stand outside of space
and the collective light of the universe is upon me,
bright and hot the engine burns,
a single structure of all the energy that has ever been
pulsing through this human heart

i evaporate to a wakeful state,
back within the confinement of being,
my eyes open and reality slips through,
photons penetrate the vitreous body
and i close them, trapping the light,
converting to impulse,
the little universe within glows softly
