PRISONER OF TIME 1 © 2007
I am conscious human matter,
That aims to be inconsistent,
Between the reason that sustains me
And the chaos that slowly attracts me.
I am made of flesh and thought,
Of feelings that contradict themselves,
I seek stability, but deep down,
I yearn for the freedom that inconsistency brings.
Each certainty is a prison,
Each doubt, an open door,
And between the solid and the ethereal,
I find myself in constant alert.
I want to be fluid, not fixed,
To change form, idea, and vision,
For in the unconsciousness of the moment,
Is where I find true creation.
I am conscious, yes,
But I am also what escapes,
What dissolves in the wind,
And is remade in the silence of dawn.
I am human matter,
That aims to be inconsistent,
A dance between being and ceasing to be,
In search of an elusive balance.
