There is no peace.
There is no calm.
There is no equanimity.
The feeling of balance
is just
the cresting of the
parabola.
Up and down.
The violent waves.
When you are small enough
you barely feel them moving.
We shed tears
as our world changes.
Faced with our temporary nature,
we think we barely
have the time to learn,
but we already know
and that knowledge scares us
even more.
Faced with an ascent,
descent,
the high frequency.
Something violent
and life changing.
We hold our breath,
and close our eyes,
and pray,
instead of taking in
our destiny.
