Order Control

--------------
a cosmic bow
--------------
fires the arrow of time
------------------------
unerringly
-----------
from order to disorder
------------------------
which still revolts
-------------------
my organised brawling mind
------------------------------
historically
------------
an enduring pattern-noter
----------------------------
bringing a taste
-----------------
of control to the discord
--------------------------
always hasty
--------------
I'm compelled to grasp order
-------------------------------
-------------------------------
the sway is sweet
-------------------
to escape chances mercy
--------------------------
just for a beat
---------------
may keep me rising early
-------------------------->

Nearby, to our right, but out of sight, water burbles by, though the ground we walk on is gradientless. Birds chatter music all around, enjoyably consuming lingering summer insects. There are no further away sounds. We have walked like this for years, extensive explorers. Stronger. Interlinked. A twig snaps. You turn to me with a well-known, warm, calm smile. Let's keep going .

The habit was leaving on a wind of healing, fraught and caught and taken away, to be perennially a memory, a delight consumed by the violent bite of history.
