far end of the world

by the far end of the world i stand,
where sky melts into earth,
intertwining intangibly,
the great abyss,
stares back,
at an emptier shell.

and by the far end of the world i stand,
a paper boat in hand,
to ferry the best of me,
i found in you,
when i looked for me
in you.

and by the far end of the world i stand,
wrapping the best part of me,
in morning mist,
flicked from a better day,
that saw you,
thus was you.

and by the far end of the world i stand,
giving this vessel sight,
with a jar of noble light,
an illuminated jar of glass,
that holds in it,
the moon's reflection,
that fell on you.

and by the far end of the world i stand,
releasing the breath,
i drew from you,
gently on the boat,
till it fills it paper sail,
carrying it gently forth.

by the far end of the world i stand,
the demons of the world behind,
mocking in ferocious sincerity,
watching the paper boat,
slip away from their grip.
they screech, preach and pray,
for they know, even if they get me,
the ark is safe,
even if it be destroyed,
it shall never be taint.
and in this I lie content,
by the far end of the world.

on this day - 260111

my yin and yang,
slips out of harmony,
spinning in the turbulent rage,
my soul unleashed on itself,
i feel my inside tear into a billion pieces,
and my face means nothing anymore,
i feel lost,
heading out to my destruction,
like a paper boat,
smashing against the rapids,
but just before,
u emerge,
the fires of rage and chaos,
illuminating your outline,
in bronze and gold,
you are Mars,
you are Venus,
you pull me out of my depths,
and restore balance,
like goddess Athena,
you fought my demons,
and restored harmony,
and i finally hear the songbird's tune.
