Dust-Devils Of Time. Adaya Marcel.


Dust-Devils of Time.
Adaya Marcel.


My legs, frozen in the quagmire of indecision,
tread deeply in confusion and transfusion;
knee-deep in a propensity to sleep,
I am a freak of time.

I alight with the moon
retire with the monsoon;
I am infested with "too soons" 
and their residual doom.

Who is this creature,
what is her nature and
departure time from mystery's station?
That she cannot feel the walls of infinity
shows She is no longer rational,
but is perhaps delusionally free.

How can she see her way clear to clarity
if her eyes are turned towards
the corner of the universe?
Who will be her nurse?
Who can quench her thirst
and propel an ocean of understanding
to quell her despising the lack of bonding
between all Earthlings
when she gallops away on her hearse?
Who will be her nurse?

Who else, but the inverted universe
cradling a heart born in reverse;
the bells of humanity are sounding with a typical peal,
the nurse, the goddess, the fire, the water, the seal
of compassion are as real as a dust devil in the desert.
Dust-devils of time
 will peel your skin off if you stand too near,
but what is it.....is it really there;
is it the stuff picked up, or is it just the wind?

Yes the light of Truth dispels
all raging thirst, at first, and then 
quiets the squealing child;
the corner of the Universe can
precociously thrill the hungry mind
and give a heart permission
to be a violet wildflower.
