A Speck of Dust
In the Aeonic repetition
Of night enveloping day,
A tiny universal speck
Of dust contemplates
The great mystery of
Endless orbits and
Infinity…
The insanity of war and
Fragile unstable peace…
The beauty of a sunrise,
Sunset, love’s wondrous
Bliss confused by anomalous
Inanity…
The speck of dust mingles
With all other specks
And awaits an ordained
Anonymity in the darkness
Of eternal oblivion – or the
Healing light of Salvation…
(Billy Ray Chitwood – June 27, 2015)
So much of that ‘Speck of Dust’ contemplation is dispensed in my fictional memoir which is 90% true…it is titled, The Cracked Mirror – Reflections of an Appalachian Son. The book is an account of a boy/man chasing his past and finding some of his dreams along with the despair from mistakes made along the way…it also has a bit of history that you might find interesting…

A shame the fragile unstable peace is what just might distract us from looking at those beauteous sunrises and sunsets.and stop us from taking care of Mother Earth for generations to come.
