Don’t stray from the weight of the world.
Re-minding Reminders
By Tyler Lucas Mobley
If sunshine be butter
take me for bread.
Life’s sweetest sentiments
fall conspicuous as ripe
coconuts in Manhattan.
All this momentum up a
waterfall, never a thought
to test the flow.
Did you remember to re-mind?
Change the soil of your fertile
drum, realizing then how green
a thumb you’ve been sitting on.
Turning stones in a prized search
never mind the reward was in the
act. Fork and knife powerless
over cerebral soup, spoon fed
re-minder for a taste of God.
Ahh yes, limitless all along, for
the water was always wine and
fish delight the offer of your net.
An old vinyl re-minded, suddenly
plays new grooves. With sultry
disguise the best thing that could
ever happen has a painful start.
In the moment of re-minding the
world behaves at the direction of
your spark, lantern, candle, bonfire
with doubt stomped out resume
wayfaring thought, existence holds
another stone to sharpen our edge.
