The Quest
POEMS

Why does the river flow not fly?
The rocks are as heavy as it is...
Why does the earth rotate not bounce?
The ultimate lie of equilibrium...
Why the deep blue ocean doesn't cajole
us to live there?
Yes, it does, but not for many...
The encircling and the ludicrous
labyrinth of the quest
The malicious strap around our wings
nudges the feathers
Why is the quest such a hard nut?
Fool the angels and trust in fairies!
Yes! we're from heaven!
Yes! We're from heaven!
The blathers you can trust in the post-truth world!
