Roiled
into suspension and then expelled with swirling energy
Blended to a random grace by mixtures
of unrelated forces
Shuffled
together with cast-off hopes and spoiled dreams
Spinning for a while with quaintly
off-base notions
Left
to try and comprehend the deepening aftermath
Thrown off by the motion of the
bleeding edge
No
longer sharing the same up and down
Evaporating slowly in the hazy
contrail of progress
Accelerated
briefly into a trailing vortex
Quietly reclaimed by the good cosmic
background
Swirled
up with others by mere and simple chance
Disappearing quickly behind the
passing lights
Spun
off by the force in an incomprehensible motion
Settling on back into a dreamless
entropy
Cast
aside without malice or conscious intent
Now drifting quite at ease among
unrelated detritus
Displaced
by our ungainly movement in this wondrous medium
A small byproduct in the wake of our
unfocused propulsion
Mixed
fully with the exhaust of its incomplete combustion
Falling behind with other wastes as
they are expelled
frothing
bubbles caught between the guidance of their wake
unforeseen emergent effects from
unconsidered acts
left
bobbing in the chop as the chaotic center passes
wisdom granted by random orientations to our space and time
mere
collateral disturbance stirred by the small pressure of your passing
dirty froth created by rapid progress
towards unknowable goals
left
behind to mix with other effluents and re-coalesce with the void
