The sun rises ~
my eyes open slowly
and I am thrust
into swift, sudden currents
of chaos
swirling
once more,
deep density
surrounding me
as surely
as a new day
has come.
I take a deep breath,
grab my bootstraps
and my courage,
trying to handle it
with as much tolerance
and patience
as I can muster
at the moment.
Too much, too soon, too often
causes me to fold unwillingly ~
inward origami,
jagged edges
and smooth valleys
covering my internal fields
of faith and folly.
It doesn't matter,
I tell myself,
but I am not listening ~
I am surging
towards these rocky shores
on wild waves
not of my own making ~
how does one persuade
the tide?
