My mind seeks the reasonable course

Of love, of trust, of hope, of art

But from all these points

Once parallel forces

Bend to center

Intertwine

Singular

Twisted logic, desperate hopes, simple dreams

All feeding the spiraling momentum

Opposing forces colliding in

Cyclonic rotations

Pulled into

A single

Point

At this unimaginable future point in time

This storm will reach its climatic peak

All possible futures will emerge

And one defines Reality

Or the calm center

Implodes to

Nothing

All lines drawn to the vanishing point

Life forces converging once again

A vortex of fateful decisions

Issues align like planets

Concerted moves

All changes

Forever
