Finding truth 2

Charles Fields II 1955 (Fort Bragg, NC)



Frozen vapor trails so far above clouds
They sparkle at night like stars.

Our spirits venture forth.

Drifting winds of space/time

Tracing tracts Of our journey
Reaching back from the beginning

measured By width of our visions
Depths of our dreams

Everywhere
Everywhen between.

Mirror souls speak therein
Shifting tides of change

We dwell across dimensions
Which intersect, interact, and parallel.

Ghost trails calling us back and forth.
In waves as we rise and fall,

Together and apart,
sharing an answer to the call

turning back time
with futuristic instruments,

Lost travelers chill
unwind Rest awhile…

From the day-to-day’s
climb towards perfection,

Collect key elements
of common-sense.

Create imaginative expressions
To address representative equations

Assembled
from logical threads.

Assign meaningful tasks
Find step-by step tests

As we combine
progress

We launch our minds
Exchange signs

Compare notes

Gather in evolving
patterns of success

Footsteps,
leading perhaps

to A new point
of view

Unbound

In our quest
To find truth
