Flights of Fancy

Flights of fancy, intentional or not,

power this world of ours.

A prophet, a seer, and a stacked deck of cards

are at odds.

The outcome is still a toss-up

in the air.

Power is for sale

and

money is at stake.

Money is a token,

so its worth can be altered.

Unturned stones are littered

on the ground,

And their potential has been ignored

or missed.

Missing details can change everything

when they are found.

A meticulous search will find

some of these unturned stones,

Missing details that can be

deadly.

Not all will be found.

The scene can transform mid-flight or mid-journey,

so those on foot or wing must stop and pause.

A sensor is needed to reassess.

Corrections might be needed.

The universe is full of self-organizing chaos.

Many factors can be swept up and aside,

and get lost,

But not forever.

My name is Katherine J. Krein. I lost my father in June of 2013, and then I lost my mother in November of the same year. After they both died I went through a mind-warping number obsession that has taken me years to control. This is my story. It is now 2025. I still use this site to post some poems and thoughts. My obsession has faded, however, I still notice the numbers. Faith, hope, and love is what guides me now.
