Perspective

I ride the wave of his passion
which lifts me above the dull-drone commons
beyond the cardboard cups of molten caffeine
emblazoned by the green smile of corporate hegemony

I exalt from the heights
where all the world becomes a Madurodam
And somehow right in its relatlve proportion
Small yet bustling, Legoland in its oneness.

And when he goes, how quickly I fall
Back into that streaming false-mind vision
Faster than gravity because I arrow down
My cheek crunching through the gravel

How many times must I rise and plunge
Before I find the way to scale the heights myself
And see that I can float and glow beside the man
or without him, whatever fate decrees?
