DESIGN

the entire world looked confused
but he looked hard
and things fell into place.
something lay intertwined in it all
a design.

he looked at things
turned them upside down.
looked again
turned them around.
and then he understood
the kaleidoscope that was the world.

the cluster of stars above his head
were always ..well..clusters and nothing more.
then one day they separated into scorpions and kings
and he wondered how he hadnt seen before.

so the poet set out to look for forms that corresponded with the rest
and meant something as a whole.
he found it in frowns he found it in smiles
he even found it in bathroom tiles
the more he saw he realized
how life itself was a design
