First in this week…

The rift began long before the stones
held our memories
You might say it began before time
when light divided darkness. Or
did darkness divide light?
There is a rift that runs through the human brain
creating the left v. the right
logical v. illogical, perhaps
yet one cannot exist without the other
The rift is our own illusion
eyes forgetting how to see
the lines that weave
through life, stronger than our DNA
perfect cohesion defying density
if we could only see beyond
the rift, again
Created for Sue Vincent’s #writephoto prompt #rift.




























A poet sang*, “There is a crack, a crack in everything (there is a crack in everything) That’s how the light gets in”. Yes, even in the rocks.
* Leonard Cohen, “The Future”

I sort of missed him in the early days, but when I finally came across him in the eighties, I was blown away by his poetry…
