Tsunami Thoughts

Trickles in theorems treated as dripping solutions,

a trace instead of tide to truly transcend,

while the suffering tread water.

But through the current in cerebral surges

rushes those thoughts in startling essence,

which can rip away at minds and perceptions.

 

They start out like small droplets

seemingly insignificant in their substance,

slowly swelling as they immerse so many

in their swells of insight

as the truth grows

and becomes a Tsunami in influence,

totally sweeping over many isles in opinions

until it consumes misunderstandings and bias,

quickly drowning them beneath a wave in facts.

 

Submersed are the lives unwilling to change

that refuse to yield unto the altering power,

who cling to their rafts of prejudice,

think they are able to stay afloat

against a flood in transforming sway.

 

It is shear force of epiphany’s stream

that destroys the mental barriers

unto the evolving progress of life.

 

Amid the sea in constant transition

too often sail the vessels of status quo,

how quickly they sink in the wake

of veracity’s flow they refuse to accept.
