Off-Key

Most nonsensical cognitions stem from a deep refrain;
Like flood waters receding into aquifers of rain.

We still ourselves & meditate; focusing on one thing…
Like letting go of stress or sorrow; thoughts along a string.

Soon & sharply, that thread is twanged by misfires in our mind.
Primordial disordered themes from lizard brain behind.

Something neutral, somewhere dark or image ridiculous;
Irrelevant of nature, interloping synapse thrusts.

It pulls the hum’s harmonics sharp & flat within our piece.
Either, ignore discord…or track the squeak & apply grease.

I see the world through a Painter’s eyes and process it with a Poet's Heart....it's quite a harsh place for the soul. It scratches and wears your true self down, at times, but the Beauty is Addictive. I feel for everyone I encounter. Everyone I encounter is a teacher if I'll let them be. I Empathize with everyone I talk to & I Think about Everything-LEVi
