The Arisen Wheat

by shaun lawton

It was a matter of having stumbled onto 

 seeing fit that we were ever led to 

Become familiar with its overall charm

 it's really a long extended history

Of twisted associations leading back 

  in a procession to a time when friends

Made rituals count and the forces which

  guided us were ushered from beyond  

In order to make amends we face

  the hardships that keep cropping up 

No land of pretend could compete 

  with the dream we shaped into our own

spare tires

  The answer to what happened to man lies in finding  

a permanent battery long after you need it.

 Everything that got lost in the vortex of division

Elements that are woven apart into each other 

 End up disrupting the overall integration

What is allowed is the cycle of life to renew itself as

    Debris from old components found in nature.

Vacuum Dynamics

by     shaun      lawton  

silence may be defined 

as the left over chill 

that falls in the wake 

of a calamity. In light

 of past events, I never 

could have known what

 quiet sounded like.

 

Silence is the result 

of having one of our

 most precious organs 

removed. Neither can 

we know what sound 

is like, until it's gone. 

without any sound to 

displace it, the quiet 

wouldn't exist. These 

questions lie curled up

along the interior rim 

of a nautilus shell in

side my skull with 

breath held as if for

a pin to drop
