Afterthought

                                                                                                                                                                   
In the end
as the night passes me by, 
after all tangible interactions
when the sky is blinded, almost with a 
sullen emotion impressed on it, I get out
of my cocooned bed to the world of the Wild
where the stars become my blanket, and the smoke
my intoxicating perfume, and I pull my head back to let 
the sleep like reverie take hold of my consciousness,
that lets my life unroll, while I wait for the art of psychedelia 
to show me the reflection of what I seek; just like you wait for me 
to unravel this burlesque, but in that moment how everything succumbs 
to the one entity- becomes Entirety- like the flames consuming all that is surrounding
And all I see is my fragmented self in the directionless movement of the wind,
its pieces all dancing along in different directions, like siblings
separated at birth; and before I reclaim every piece
my fingers start burning, the reverie breaks,
I bid the insects a good night and
return to my cocoon, leaving
yet something else in
the wilderness.
