Beyond the haze

by Christine Thibeault

Catalyst aims accurately and
forcefully taps each nerve like a domino.
one by one specs of doubt circle around;
each uniting...
the haze of gray is blinding.

Tripping now a familiar dance...
stepping over these uniting specs
seems almost impossible...
strong the desire to just dance alone.

The addiction to see beyond the haze starves,
everything aches...
the urge unsatisfied.

No longer willing for whirling thoughts
to be in limbo, persistence makes
an entrance so grand ...
the thickened haze begins to thin as
internal instincts are trusted.

At last a beautiful solo dance,
all aches finally soothed...
the urge satisfied.

Sounds like the churnings of a mind in some turmoil that finally settles the Question at hand and itself in the same moment...but I could be off. Interesting under any interpretative awning..:0

Interesting and no less than engaging as hell across every line. I liked it a lot.
