Road Less Traveled ~ Brent Harris
Taiko drumming
Vast energy
I feel it
Through the floor
Below me
Hear it, too
Though I sit
A floor below
I hear it
Filtered through
Talk and chatter
People passing
Brief snippets
To interpret
As if my own
Piercing shrieks
Children
Laughter, love
After nothing
Nothing after
For artist, writer
Creatives all
Seeing past
Beneath
The surface
Expanding
Small moments
Shrinking
Vast concepts
Bits and pieces
Snatched at random
Purloined wisdom
Confused conjoined
Selected
Reflected on
Reflecting upon
Exploring life
Creating my
Weak vision
Poor interpretation
Of my inner truth
Connecting
My reality
Hoping
To open
Your vision
To you
And to me
Expanding
Our world
