How Strange

PoetryPhilosophy
Written By Manuel Paul Engelbrecht

Every existence

Every day

Every instant

Detaches effortlessly

Like wind-blown tree leaves




With this silent lineage

A novel season

Opens its bud

In long-forgotten colours




At the center of

Origination and demise

Where the universe

Is unknown to its ancestors

The gate is left ajar



How strange it is

To be anything at all
