We took our little
rest.
Stepping out of the heated
incognito
the rest was an awakening
there had been
misconceptions
misunderstandings
we needed to set
the record straight
and to do so
we pressed the reset button
it wasn't going to be sudden
and it was going to be
painful
but in the end
or perhaps a new beginning
there would be
a new understanding
a new conception
a clean slate
the slate was going to stay the same
we knew that
to erase the acknowledged
would be
counterproductive
all we will have gained
lost
scattered along the plains of oblivion
when we took our rest
we closed our eyes
and saw with greater clarity
a new conviction our beacon
cutting through the misty wet fury
with precision
blind but not unattentive
aware
for perhaps the first time
who saw this day
rushing forward like a steed
riderless but still motivated
a destination always in sight
but sometimes prevented?
expectations nearly left us
failures
small ones and big ones
conscious ones and unconscious ones
prideful and hypocritical
all this we saw when we closed
our eyes
for a rest
reciprocal
intentional
metaphysical
a splendid metamorphosis
we took all
that we now saw
and prepared to use it
there was a new day before us
insipid as the day we emerged
today
yesterday
tomorrow.
We took a rest
and moved on.
