The Dance Of Life (4)

square pegs
trying to take the steps of the
circle

holes everywhere
lapses
dark spots
explosions
and weeping on one side

at the other side of this world
is the big party
people laughing and dancing
and children
chasing each other

that storm and time
and still ponds and sitting lotuses

a baby on the crib
and a young couple making love in bed
a window opens
to a beautiful sunset

sadness and truth and lies sprouting like
grasses in an open field

seeds turning into trees
and rain stopping one evening
