"The Universe is Right on Schedule" - A Poem from Nearly 20 Years Ago
I wrote a lot of poetry back during my undergrad days, but once I found that I enjoyed doing fiction more, I never picked it back up (despite filling a huge notebook with well-transcribed versions along with accompanying images). Since Steemit seems to have a thriving (and growing) poetry community, I thought I'd add a little fuel to that particular fire. I hope you enjoy :)
On the cusp of a dream
I dreamt a thing
While on the verge of waking.
I had peace of mind
While my mind lay in pieces,
And someone massaged my soul.
We stopped somewhere along the way
And inhaled the red,
Pricking our fingers on the speed of life.
