The Scene and The Herd




The Scene and The Herd

Eyes open to receive
A burst of perception
A branch thought broken off
A vision or a hunch

Ears set to perceive
The sound I thought I heard
Animal, horn or word

Vision indicates discernible details
Well within my scope

Hearing informs the brain
Of the unseen realm
Sounds betray rafts of information

You can’t see the wind
You can’t see the speed of light
But you can hear the wind moving
Through the tall reeds and
  You can hear a sonic boom
If we listen to each other and
Everything else
 We can see the hidden elements
We hear

If we look close enough
We can hear the silent elements
We see

Funneling it all through
The scope of the brain

We receive what we perceive
Senseless or not
Reality is illusory

Segmented understandings
Sifting through the sand

It all goes in one ear
Through one eye and
Out through the mouth
Over the tongue
