Poem I wrote

 .

NAVIGATION

.

.


The flashes of light


Inside the pitch-black cave of my skull


Reveal everything


Yet explain nothing


Like snapshots of fleeing moments


I must interpret and integrate these pictures


Into a cohesive narrative

.

.



They are all I have


To inform me


To remember my past


Plan my future


Orient myself each day

.

.

No wonder I make mistakes


Blundering along 


Trying to plot my course


By a fickle moon on a jet-black night


While dense oddly shaped clouds


Scud by, parting for a moment


When I can imagine I see 


The path I must take


.
