SamadhiMuse

      Wordless against the world of ideas
         echoes of passion, memories of causes
      cannot stir, as feeling those things once did
         and I feel I must appear slow
            or non-verbal these days.
      Lisa, so bright, burns her mid-twenties
         on the pyre of ideas and understandings
      and I found it hard to participate with her
         because I was reminiscing while she was  creating
      So, I wonder, do I listen to a more subtle drummer
         or am I just dying at the wheel
      it’s strange that we pass from things
         and become something, someone
            no longer able to go back.
