Legacy

If I wish to be aware of
the legacy of our fathers
no need for looking back
it is here now to be seen.

I've long been entranced by
misty shadows of the past;
and imaginary notions of what
I think of as the future.

Since the beginnings of time
before words were ever spoken
the legacy of the ancient ones
was passed down without fail.

So many layers of hypnotic veils;
so few of them are my creation.
I wonder if I have ever caught
a glimpse of what is truly so.

I pray I come to learn to see
the vision that is meant for me.
