the corridor of waiting
November 29, 2019we navigate the labyrinth of illusions with great care -
it seems that someone up there is constantly
shifting, re-arranging its dimly lit corridors,
perhaps even modifying the blueprints;
we wait. what else?
we summon images of a passage to a dreamless winter
we imagine an impossible love
or practice ways of unravelling old mysteries
and gaining a measure of clarity…
we hope to find the way out;
but aren’t hope and waiting
dark corners of the maze?
isn’t the quest just the universe
deceiving itself?
