Coincidence

around the corner from the mind lies the

essence of our souls and those of mankind,

who venture froth each day into a world

of which they know nothing and as they act

out each hour of its passing they offer up

the impression they do not give a damn...

around the corner from the soul lies the spirit

of one's imagination that harbors no grudges

towards the mind that it betrays daily as it

revisits reality from the vantage point of

numerous perspectives, acting out its plays

in a familiar but precarious environment...

around the corner from the imagination lies the

hospital of memories of which few will survive

the onslaught of age that diminishes their viability,

preventing their aggravating rebirth and recovery

that oftentimes is as unpleasant as it is otherwise...

around the corner from the hospital lies the

personality of action or inaction as the case may be,

sifting out fact from fiction while addressing

each day as if walking in a military parade even

though its behaviors typically speak differently...

around the corner from the personality lies the

duality of it all and the constant struggle

between the conscious and the sub-conscious

fighting like step children in an unorthodox

approach to waging battle against the predictable

and the uinpredictable overlooking the ironies

that their battle for domination creates until the

difference between perspectives finally coincide.
