One Single Notion

One single notion:

Disorder out of chaos ...

Questions, like rebellion,
set adrift,
doubtful of surviving,
floating in sleeplessness.

Demands endless searches
assurances yet to come
... out of drawbacks
off warm but dangerous perches,

Rebellion in strangling circles ...

Learned, quiet, humility
detoxified,
recognized,
in broad natural effects

Genius spread on genome floor ...

Inspect, state, appreciate
a miracle of stamina

Balls of fortune
roll and bump
through gregarious
social walls

No flat surface
for potential
kinetic motions of
movable, dutiful, youth,

Who masters the rise
to be counted
by being encountered
on eave of this morrow.
