Sculpting time and reason

Encounter with impression

participants beguiled

imagination dancing

to build a world defiled

by that mistaken moment

you feel for what is not

discrimination cozened

by wanting to be caught

in echoes of your own life

experience betrays

the truth distilled in shadows

relentless tides erase

the knowledge found in writing

we learned when once we read

a conversation cycle

that swirls inside the head

till crafted into drama

great tales to share anew

we build unwrinkled wisdom

with threads obscured from view.
