The Taken Ones
transcendence;
when the ephemeral breath matures-
the energy collected, being
escapes by astral aperture
to a realm our human eyes cant see
a state the soul seeks by departure
to the end, and beginning, ultimately
the atoms rearrange themselves
to find a way again to breathe
& the taken ones talk to us in the breeze
it seems unnatural to fabricate the soul
the esoteric substance of skin so unfitting
ardent entity in a fragile flesh
involuntary fugitive faithfully awaits the quantum leap
better a heart misplaced by momentary lapse
than to suffer uncertainty before the eyes
I like to believe there was no time for the notorious flash
sometimes the taken ones get taken by surprise
a glitch in the machine, your time was cheated like sutumn equinox
divine eclipse, your atoms are still here but your thoughts have gone to space stuff
the ether will again transform you, bathe in the empyrean seas
celestial estuary of redistribution, once again youll be bound to your knees
