...Hypothetical Scrutiny...

It has been said;    “In the final analysis,” as if there were one distinctive defining moment, that all musings of theoretical truth are finally revealed...Breach the damn that holds back consciousness.  Let thoughts flow freely...

It has been said...

“In the final analysis”

as if there were one distinctive

defining moment, that all musings

of theoretical truth are finally revealed



Only an imaginary score card has been keep

by some unseen score keeper

to be tallied at a final definitive, 

yet unknown moment 



The long passage across life’s ocean

is only a process to an ending chapter of an infinite journey

Finally reaching that distant opposite shoreline

stepping out… into other side's new beginning



One can only speculate

though philosophical scrutiny.

Judgments of provisional ideals

are heard from every corner of the planet



Is personal soul searching self-appraisal

or nothing more than narcissistic conceit?

Or could it be the process of an evolution

of our spirits that gives life meaning and reveals purpose?



To wholeheartedly become who we are in the moment

Acceptance no matter who or what that may be

The quest for precise definition too exact

for any other human being

other than our own spirit to comprehend



The epic, complex magnitude

of our intricate existence

A final accepting personal valuation

could be a definitive moment

of conscious enlightenment



Mere theoretical truth-seeking

an unproven idealistic

interim possibility

...Hypothetical Scrutiny...
