The Earth Was Without Form and Void...

Mainly
because I choose form
over formlessness
and chaos

I was thinking
perhaps next week
or even today
but surely by sometime
next year
I’d like to address
the issue
you know
the lack of order
the random chaos
endemic
in practically
everything
but not quite

Life supplies surprises
enough
My eye delights
in the unexpected
song of a tiny bird
and
in the sudden break of clouds
above the sea at sunset
or
the startling burst into flight
of a clutch of doves
I hadn’t seen in my path

So I’ll get around to it
one day
but
until then
wow
this is quite a ride
