Street roots June 7, 2013 Manichean Throwaway By Jay Thiemeyer When young, and fearless, the world My oyster, I swore To do right forever And forever, I was right, and slept Peacefully, whole By morning, I was Whole then. It was a dream of course something I have learned by rapids and twists given Me in places where I was as foreign As they were And I am indebted For all the unexpected pain, the unexpected Turned to the normal Till It wasn’t And the familiar came home Again To last forever And forever, I want very much To believe, a dream I can live with these days like Youth Or sleeping well at peace With self and others And the world as it is The world in its wholeness Given by what I choose To call G.O.D. these Lonely and lovely remaining Days. In the embrace of mystery Undeserved though It may be and still There As it was from the beginning When I was young.
