Epochal

It quite happened so
in search of messiah, soul-
soother, went far and near.

A persona perfect, no
almost perfect, for perfection is a myth.
Doors I didn’t knock, they buttered bread with
gossip, muttered songs of sadism
kept love graded on plates
of low, medium, and high of gains.
A soul with the warmth of love
without shadows, with guts to stand high
seemed like a luminous star of myths.
Vitiligo, perfect allegory for bleached out souls,
pernicious souls.


It quite happened so
in this search, not blood but thoughts
tie souls, quite epochal,
happiness dwells inside
like a clear glass, thoughts open windows
of fraternity.

Acceptance plays the song of warmth
and it quite happened so
 that happiness came naturally.

  1. i agree, happiness dwells inside
    and in sharing our thoughts we do come together like family
    it is a wisdom many dont know...happy to fill the earth
    with their own wind, never listening to that
    of another.

    acceptance is truly a warm song.

  11. It's a hard lesson to learn over and over, to embrace our shadows with our light, to accept even our saviors are imperfect. Beautifully detailed.
