GOD KNOWS

It was so clear, it was so obvious.

The future assured,

an immutable crystal path forward,

going exactly where I wanted it

and something happened.

I had the answers

knew the questions

was prepared for every eventuality.

Life, however it could be lived

would be

with fierce devotion and apparent appreciation

in a particularly prepared way.

I knew, roughly

how the years would pass

how my existence would unfold.

Everything was clear

Everything was safe

and something happened.
