ode to socrates' last hours.

that roaming quest; the
stumbling through a dejavu
dimension; what is this new
recollection, morphing in
--------------------------------
it's shapes and sizes. it's Form's;
that when born sparkle in
Reality's spectrum, like some
celestial symphony, or Nature's
--------------------------------
chorus in fierce harmony;
slowly lose their appeal.. Time
builds itself slowly with battlements
and turrets, the clocks unending
--------------------------------
rotation like circling vultures:
poised; hours in linear
infinity like some relentless
march. and that deepest
--------------------------------
Fear. when the heart pounds
it's last, the cerebral frenzy
ceases it's functions. the Ultimate
Fear. the shaman's nemesis,
--------------------------------
the beast of the wilderness,
with it's fierce Roar. Then
perceptions doors glide open. The
Cave's darkness no longer
--------------------------------
corrupts sight: the slits in the
wardrobes exterior are
smashed with colossal outburst,
Energy's eflux, the atom's crux..
--------------------------------
into the open, the emancipation
of dimensions, where Idea's are
explicitly apparent. Absolutes
govern like a superorgansisms
--------------------------------
invisible hand. the pointing
fingers amongst this cosmic flow
no longer loom in paradoxical
scents, the nose is long gone!
--------------------------------
synthesis replaces sensation.
the imagination is
as-it-once-was.
existence seems to add a
--------------------------------
burden of transience, make the load
heavier: whilst rivers
thunder and the Sun's splendour
crafts shards of beauty
--------------------------------
in Nature's delightful
outburst.. The Thirst
unquenching, venturing into
Potential's glorious infinitum.
--------------------------------
yet confined to a set
of time. the mind ever relapses.
forgets from whence it came,
engendering it's own demise.
--------------------------------
the spiralling pit: bottomless.
thought with light at the
end of the tunnel. the
apparent omnipresent dawning..
