Original DDE™ surrealistic art: “The 10,000 Doors” by: rob kistner © 6/11/24
We cannot hide
from the great orb
of unquestioning fate
that spins in the spaces
of destiny’s light and dark
days of falter and fear
in this great void approaching
that moves
unsteady in orbit
of unquenchable doubt
what your mind must conceal
from the spirit
of joy and forgiveness
that which is pure
tested by time
and the wanting hands
of the waiting
who cower
yet smile
singing truth
through the hail and barrage
‘cross the bow mast
of freedom
seeking broad measure and berth
as all that you seem to desire
slips slowly away
like rain down a spout
and nightmares plumb deep
the sphere of black dreams
such is the slag-shattered
glass orb of the future

that moves slowly
through the arc of the ages
who’ve waited and watched
‘neath the promised moon
of deliberate ancients
that revolves
in the void of the others
that seek what we know
to be ever
the voice of the lost
in the light of the dark dawning
that heralds the word
of this time that’s upon us
that holds us fast
in the fear of bleak visions
and of longing
for all
that we desire to be
here in our heart
locked in a frozen quandary
peering startled
down a shadowy corridor
of 10,000 unopened doors
truth so elusive
in this moment
that slips
like a squandered teardrop
forever away from
our loosening grasp

* “Slag Shattered Future” is my visual representation of humankind’s dark polluting progress
crushing the light of a pure pristine future.
