I never protected
you in a fashion conducive
to prosperity
stifled by numerous individuals
a proper chance to acquisition
the honest essence of how
you\’ve constructed me
in a fashion similar to Swiss Cheese
riddled with holes — each one
void of purpose
bit by bit
you ensconced me in your reality
the emergence of selected
cluster mind photographs
are taken over with an authentic
drop of reality ink, well, the ink
is nothing special only when tethered
to the expression of an individual
who seeks to spelunk the caverns
of a soft spongy surface
over time, you dear life
consumed me with rested
embers that appreciate
rebirth and redemption
when chances are offered
the past is of no consequence
only a chartered path forward
to consume each moment
not only with passion
also, the many faces
of verity
