Dr. Molly celebrates life, in this verse, exclusively for Different Truths.

How you
          pulsate
the vital
          energy
coalescing
          cascading
in an
          upsurge
to upend
          aspirations,
always
          in the
tumult
          of creative
confusion....

The inner
          kernel
of being,
          be it
animal
          or man
struggles,
          to stand
on its own...

          braving
the obstacles
          that appear
to be
          the end...

no ends,
           no, just
beginnings
           anew...
 
           buck up!
let not
            the notion
of chimerical
            put us down...

life pulsates
            unbeaten
in forms
            variant
in shifting
            shadows
that play
            endless
hide and seek...
