But again in transit

Mythic creatures mix – as in our

minds.

Black lotuses and blue ancestors –

Just as the family album now

mirrors.

Faces, like our options,

One above the other, in totem,

Also, not solution, only conun-

drum.

These meditations companions

On a journey that for us

May end, not in a terminus,

But again in transit.

These then are Orient-ations,

Also, Disorient-ations.
