life was once magic
a world aglow with divine light,
casting shades of vibrant lustre even in the darkness

then came a swallowing into the lost masses
a widespread confusion and competition for attention
creating numb caves of loneliness, and later, drunken fragmentation

always was the question looming:
how do i escape?

it was discovered that no escape could be found in running, hiding, or re-arranging.
the only relief came in sitting with the sickness, waiting for the light to return.

one day it did, and with it came the seriousness, the intensity,
the all-consuming desire for more of its source.

when the idea of a permanent end arrived,
signifying a simultaneous eternal beginning, there was no choice
but to pursue the course to find if, indeed, there was truth
at the bottom of the golden promise.

and now, i often laugh, for no good reason.

The best reason to laugh is for no good reason.
