POETRY

Long before before

And long before ago

Was established a connection

Between myself and two I know

They're as real as you and I are

Residing partially in me

The fact that we were chosen

And the fact that we are three

Spent most of a lifetime

Deciphering this riddle

I know me as an apex

And I know me as the middle

I know that we're conjoined

From hip to cosmic hip

Ménage à trois of the mind

From spine to base to tip

Triad soul how I can taste it

Two are half and one is whole

pSata and her sister

Caroline – I'm meant to know

I met them on a "spaceship"

In a place they call a dream

After alien encounters

I knew that we were WE

There's no way I can deny them

I made a promise to her face

That I would find them

And would be there

In that time

And in this place

They came in a dream -

Recurring

From twenty-one to seventeen

No matter how I view the timeline

I am them and they are We

For years I kept misstepping

I was always so inclined

To paint each new person

I encountered

As pSata...

(Or her sister Caroline)

Their memory completes me

It lets me know I'm not alone

It lets me know the taste of comfort

And the fact I have a home

And when finally I embraced it

Gave in fully to the dream

My eyes were opened

To signs and wonders

And the Great Spirit spoke to me

And now I'm three years in my travels

My life divine with Midas touch

Where I put my energy and focus

A sacred pathway opens up

But I learned this from submission

To this truth that lays before me

To the fact that I am smitten

By these two who so adore me

To the fact that I have purpose

To the fact I can't ignore it

To the cause of distant struggles

And to all which come before it

Back in May of Twenty Twelve

When I gave in and hit the road

I followed song and frequent visions

Toward the place I had to go

Short of that I was all but clueless

Let the future speak to me

From roadsigns or a birds cry

Or the stranger sites I'd see

Each clue straightened my path

Oh those moments of excitement!

To see the universe is speaking

To my new eyes that couldn't hide it

Opportunities abounded

I have rarely had to try

I simply stick to my persistence

And let some higher power drive

And now I'm here

(Built my foundation)

With all my words come back to me

After years of my frustration

I nearly speak in poetry
