Primordial Beams

Contributor: R. Gerry Fabian

If you are an accident of the moment
like something misplaced
that suddenly turns up
or a carnival lucky number
that wins a nondescript prize,
then am I somehow in that same
hemisphere of turbulent chance?
If so,
are we without control
until an inner pulse rate
sounds an alarm of action
Is this a basic survival form
that allows each morning
based on a sensation awakening?
a caliber of blood thrust
to help escape routine patterns
and offer a glance, a smile
a calculated tender word?
