Simply Living

The parachute that never fails will smash one man to pieces.
Simplistic as the moon and stars.
Simplistic as uncharted tears.
Simplistic: there is no such word.
No such word to sum up the world.
No such word to comfort our fears.
To overlook such beauty.
To overlook such pain.
Living, be it possible, need see everything.
Need see the charm in death.
Need see the ebullience in life.
The time to fly is now.
The time to dazzle yourself upon the black birds wing.
To see what he too perceives.
To embed the darkness deep under the flesh.
To emit a light far too resplendent to the eye.
To simply see all that there is to see.
Before the parachute fails to prevent a fall too capricious to heed.
