Not reality, not a dream
Sometimes I tumble
Through an unknown
Pass times last palisades
Finding myself paddling
An old stressed rowboat
Lost in a sea, commotion
Abstract- muted- blurry
Marbled grey’s of splashes
Desperate gasps weaker pants
Heart racing in still motion
Escape requires devastation
White caps snap- in tiny drops
Whitens out all I can see- be
I’m free of silence; spoon-drift
Except her voice of whispers
That move an ocean surface
When being calm…feels empty

Where flight became stalled
Because fear stood its ground
There- is where I- was reborn
Where I relearned my reality
As broken fragments of a self
Where I’ve seen the unveilings
Of time, truth, and Holy love
Where angels cried and wept
For my salvation and healing
And I- wept along with them
Where fire seared my mission
Forged into my soul as passion
A combatant for the wounded
Of humanities silenced…truths

Whispers of a poet's heart 
Your title hooked me, as I am a sucker for the science of things. And, your poem, intelligent and just as moving as the Coriolis effect, sending my thoughts askew.

Perhaps then, we’ve peregrinated the same paths and learned to humble appreciate each step taken?
