Jester In Transit

Bending a breaking point

rupturing time

Eons of history

skirting the line

 

Paradox native

our true D.N.A.

Truth as a concept

forever in play

 

Yessing and noing   

transfixed in between

The jester in transit

all canons demeaned

 

Freeing the moment

 the first wedded last

a twist to the turning

—where memory contrasts
