SURREPTITIOUS
Unanswered
questions floated,
Turbulence
in a teacup, gloated,
Myriad
mystery, life projection,
Taunt
human trouble rejection, (1)
Fights
lifelong solution difficult,
Possibility
achieved check fault,
Utter
silence, quiet move finish,
Unfinished
work complete wish, (2)
Bare
body, no cloth, wet skin, toil,
To
raise the head again alert foil,
A thick
mist of realities disappears,
I exist
fighting for life fail severe, (3)
Forgetting
life if extinguished lit,
Flickering
wick burning it defeat,
Four
walls, bathroom, I struggle,
An
invisible power, life smuggle, (4)
Watches
illuminated bathroom,
Blackout
state darkness groom,
Forgot
for a few seconds of existence,
Unconsciousness,
no resistance, (5)
Fail to
cry out for help, forget fell,
It is
twice, fell unconscious, nail,
Paralysis
state, fight for life, still,
Immobilized
state, escaped will, (6)
How
come I could escape, I know,
Automatic
electric pushed show,
Rest
was rescue symptom alert,
Hospital
bed, saline, great effort, (7)
Twenty-second,
third, fourth, pass,
Dates
scroll, unaware of the impasse,
Stable
health parameters release,
The
hospital to home, bed, please, (viii)
Six
days knew nothing sleeping,
Time
passed by graceful ticking,
Not yet
time, dear soul, to escape,
Invisible
force watchful life shape, (9)
Help
when required, I needed much,
A
surreptitious hand helped lurch,
Saved
me in the bathroom twice now,
Life
passed ever searched to bow, (10)
Vowed
promise made yet broken,
Silently
watch my misdeed token,
Savior
to me, subtle, plays delight,
Troubles
visit me encounter fright, (11)
Fail to
protect me cry out louder,
Compassion
His love get prouder,
Infinite
bliss grace care surrounds,
Surreptitious
Lord exhibit I found, (12)
He
protects automatic play found,
Divine
presence life is a profound,
Game of
light, shadow, life, death,
Surreptitious,
He controls the breath, (13)
Silk
thread, to and fro exchanges,
Living
beings inhale the lord's images.
He
exists, I missed his entire life,
His
visit helped me survive in strife. (14)
