The Underground Garden: Paving

Jumped off the track to end the running in circles.
Meeting the same hurdles

I don’t cry over spilled milk

I let it curdle

Keep the throat fresh
Nonsense gurgled
Spit out my truth
Return to turtle

There is no finish line when you answer the wrong line and seek to reach visible diddly

Call me Ridley

Because I believe it
It tried to trick me

The roof set on fire
To distract walls without windows or doors

Address at ash

New home out back

In the wonderfields

All senses react into direction
The past the past not worth a laugh so the present must be a gift to the future

I listen

Hope fills the shell of the disenchanted

Balance returns what’s been taken for granted

Strength rests
It knows when to flex

For now new sights require mental steps
Not tongue muscles and defensive breath

Solely selective listening
If words come wrapped in harm
I let them go over my head

I sleep well in my bed

Wore down my soles but not my soul
Never had a goal while continuing to achieve peace

The ultimate victory

While spectators and sponsors expect your toes to bring them joy while water bottles remain empty as by them you Go.

The world’s loneliness is unbearable
It’s shareable but hoarders keep Love as an Ace up their sleeve
Not me

Full deck on the table
I am able

To bear the world’s loneliness

And offer more than company

How about an unlocking

Friend or foe afterward
You won’t remember me
While you crystallize into the 5D

Milk spillt ain’t nothing

Off track onto new terrain texture just about the same my toe tips walk the walk full range

Every degree got a visit upcoming
No more circles

I’m done running

Watch me dive and never return
To a conquered side
Been there done that for sure not blind

Seeing more from the other side

Off track much more I will find.

Life Life Life

You’re the Ultimate Ride.
