oscuro
it felt fine flying
foot pressed to the gas
going new places
getting there fast
determined
not to whine
as the world rushed by
that any
experience
would not be mine
i believed i had it all
until my tank
ran dry
and i realized
i was experiencing
others’ creations
instead of creating
my own experience
when my foot lightened
its pressure on that pedal
in i ushered an era of silence
and i learned
in darkness lurks
inspired light
in silence
new life whispers
from calm
unmoved
seeds root
and grow
creation
stirs
from slumber
