Meticulously Mundane
When does the time come
when two corners meet
and two become one
and the whole becomes half?
Between the mischief of wonder,
the animosity of reality,
and mingle with a dash of purpose.
Lines of squares
and cross points of hard wooden planks,
describing every minute detail
of their meticulously mundane lives.
At least things are not the same anymore;
what can be said for that?
Like Lucky Charms swimming
in a sea of yummy milk,
or the small flakes dancing
in a small glass globe.
Who knows what purpose they hold
other than the obvious—
look beyond the pattern
into the fiber,
to the basis of the rhythm.
