a haiku poet suddenly uncover the truth
the light is fading
it’s then that you realise
suddenly isn’t
a sudden insight
the realisation of facts
suddenly it is
obvious
can you not see it now
ask the blue moon
not a rare event
this circulation event
hysterically
history seems just
to be his story of events
not the facts at all
one seems alone
suddenly is exposed
as an aloneness
realisation
has no friends in the mob
the noise is everything
hailing the quayside
not one lanyard is thrown
not one lifebelt
the cataract
around the overflow
is draining sense
misinformation
is the torch they are bearing
that lightens the fuse
that it is seemingly
the nature of naturalness
his the only way
the gainsayers
are reeds bending in the wind
indicators of the flow
roots in the deep pool
they draw on the effluvia
to record in time
how suddenly was
not at all sudden but the slow
turning in the current
going with the flow
that in time will never change
the flow of events
it is a true fish
that swims against the flow
that breathes in truth
that spawns that truth
in the tributaries of minds
that slowly question
what watershed is this
from which fetid lava flows
not the dews of truth
then and only then
do the tectonic plates of time
choke off the volcano
that they have created
in the friction of the likeminded
spat as a spigot
the bigots succumb
to the sudden lightening
of a gentle touch
the diffusion of
truth that defuses in time
and the end becomes
the new beginning
that the storm lantern has been lit
by the torch of truth
and the dreaded tomb
has entombed the dreaded ogre
and all of his mob
suddenly just in time
you realise that suddenly
never was the way
it was all a dream
that time has wiped the slate clean
as it always does
suddenly slowly speaks sense
