Welcome to the Agglomeration

A return to form with a poem. After yesterday's post, I felt it necessary to revert to the original stylistic choices of the blog. Groan away in the Cbox, peoples.

Flicker

Flicker
Just one time
By the pool
Flicker

Freeze frame
Flashed?
Pinpoint of light
Freeze it there

Flicker
There it is again
Subtlety abounds
It mystifies

Frozen
Yet indistinguishable
Blurry photons
Unframed and unpointed

Flicker
It dwindles
The wax is melting
It flickers

Freezing without warmth
Flicker
Flicker
Flicker

In that one moment
the answers to the
universe and everything
are known
in that one moment.

Then it is gone,
It flickers no more.
It does not flicker.
There will be no more

Flickering.
Only the sweet smell of
burning wax in the frozen air
that frames our existence

Which but in just one moment will
Flicker
Flicker
and be gone.

Till next time, may you agglomerate all your unpremeditated contemplations.
