swimmingly

I looked up synonyms of "to come to terms with."  I know, pretty dumb.  But I think I might finally have grasped, ingested into memory, what reconciliation can mean.

I'm trying to reconcile some things in my experience.  Typical human stuff.  The kinds of things we all have answers for when someone else is asking.  Even if we say we don't.  Those kinds of things we all fuss about at a certain level at least when we imbibe another culture.  Even if the swallows are just sips.  That's still enough to drown on.

it's today when no one asks
today when no one knows
today when all time seems to stop
.
momentum in its throes
