hand-eye (Hi-Q)

Helpless is not-for 

All Beings in need, a hand

points, name, friend or foe.

Under influences

Because we are

Self Aware Beings

we wonder like amnesiacs,

how we got here

and desperate for colors

we believe almost anything fantastic

as though we are all diamond fragments

of stars or angels displaced

from heaven or space.

I mean, magic is making new matter from nothing,

magic means we matter, we made this matter.

If we make-this-matter is magic made, elementary

with rock and metal.

This is simply us discovering

alchemy and fire and calling out surges, reactions,

such as desire and emulsify

concluding for every x

there is a why.

Of course, we are all-chemical beings

and we play with this, naturally

moving letters about

being creators and more concoctors,

self-prescribing physicians by our own

curious volition to flux of powers,

that make New (again).

We often curse our many selves for attempting

escape, a wait-less trip would be idyll...

on Holiday from everyday...

This must be common.

What is pressure but awareness of mortality,

destiny maybe an attempt to fly

is a stab at free will

that gets too thick and close

to the heart and mouth

for sobriety to say-

How many times must Death come knocking

before you hand him the key?
