As If Something Important Were Going On

As If Something Important Were Going On

A Poem by TTEOAI
"

The last bastion of faith in humanity falling away.

"

Resting.

 

Dreaming.

 

I found myself doing both with my eyes open.

 

Half position �"

 

As if something important were going on �"

 

But there wasn’t.

 

There was simply nothing.

 

Simply nothing.

 

Soothing patterns fire across the axon.

 

As if something important were going on �"

 

But there wasn’t.

 

There was simply nothing.

 

Yelling without noise.

 

Postulating without an argument.

 

I found myself doing both with my eyes closed.

 

Realization.

 

Comedy.

 

The beauty of the ground we tread upon

 

Tied up, gagged, gazed upon.

 

The result of yelling without noise.

 

The result of dreaming with eyes closed and staring with eyes open.

 

Blank.

 

Just how it was meant to be.

 

As if something important were going on.
