How Do You Navigate The Unknown Poem by Anita Atina

How do you navigate the unknown,
As it unfolds around you.
Do you judge from past experience,
Which falls short of the current tide,
Do you push through, with a devil-may-care attitude,
To see what gives?

How do you find answers to questions,
That weren’t asked of you before now,
Where do you evolve new contexts,
That aren’t apparent or even clear!
With fragile, moving thoughts; form changing beliefs,
Defying labels and life structures.

Yes it requires faith to persist,
But where does faith live now?
While you’re asked to walk on water,
Suspend the knowing, thinking, belief system,
And to go by the whispered promptings of …who is this?
Oh yeah the soul, to do what feels right!
