Acceptance

Pain: indefatigable waves; metronome of life,

float over - to ride is to onboard only suffering. 

Moments bifurcated, effortfully encircling 

the corrupted reality; a bleak lived experience. 

Crucible of growth, burning, writhing inside... 

expressive dignity, artistic liberation of self,

a fertile space for amorphous hopes to grow

and possibilities of fresh paths to manifest.

Reframe: now is not forever, it is simply now.

To resist is to amplify black hole within, that

stuck hollowness, perennially unsatisfied.
