In the blink of an eye...

Through the mystery of poetry one can encompass
The vast universe within the scope of an epigram.
In the frenzied pace of this unfamiliar "new normal,"
We need to aim for the highest concentration of thought,
In the topology of nodes and edges, links and vertices,
The quantum connectedness beyond time and space.
In the "blink of an eye," as it were, a single phrase
Must carry the whole weight of an entire paragraph.
In quantum thought a nanosecond is the new paradigm.
We didn't even see it coming, but we sure do feel it.
Thought must now travel even faster than light.
A mere symbol must serve in place of a chapter.
Four symbols together will tell a complete story.
We must familiarize with the future, not the past
And defamiliarize with the past and then let go. 
It is no longer necessary for history to repeat.
There are too many bright futures to choose from.
Do not tax your life with forethought of grief.
Live your life expecting happiness and peace.
Go beyond the suffocating bondage of normal.
The path to gold is not at the rainbow's end.
The bits of gold are scattered along the way.
We won't need gold where we want to end up.
Life itself is part of our eventual destination.
Just follow the light of Divine Providence.
