Mark Olynyk is a poet with a philosophical bent.
Experience is the
litmus test
of truth.
And truth
is sometimes
base.

Experience is gained
in fits and starts.
Until it starts
rolling
down
the hill.

Experience is an asset
to be saved
in the memory
bank.
But don’t bank
on it.

Once I was human
but somewhere
along the line
I lost my humanity.
then everything changed
and not
for the better.
now I’m something else
like a lower order
of animal
maybe.
indifferent
to making a difference.

We are puppets on a string
tied to the master hand
of fate.
dancing on the stage
of our days
to the rhythm
of the drum.
directed from the wings
on what to say
and do.
who knew
we had no control
over the scenes
we play.

real life is only a dream
of real life
in the mind
of all
minds.
but even this is not
what it seems.
after all
what is real
about a dream?

Transcendentalism
IS
quite a reach.
if your objective
is a state
of collective
consciousness
rather than
the run
of the mill variety.

the ego and the id.

one is seen
one is hid.

ONE IS THE SHIP
ONE IS THE SEA.

one is the way out
one is the way in.

ONE IS ME
ONE IS HIM.

one is the ego
one is the id.

~Me or Him

beware
be
aware.
tranquility traps catching
wisps of
air.
drifting
through crevasses
far
and near.
unseen by human
eyes.
a
breath of fear.
disturbing the
peace
of
mind.

the plague ignored
the
gag order.

and opened its mouth.

to swallow a ghost
town
hiding
in quarantine.

as the worm turns.

the mouth gets bigger.

and the world
has no
appetite.

for a
starving house
guest.

The lights are going out
One by one
And I can’t find the switch
To turn them back on.
It used to be on the wall
Of this room
But the room is gone.
Leaving me to conclude:
There never was
A room.
There never was
A light.

we would be little gods
and decide the fate
of worlds
we made on a dare.
given half the chance
we might be rulers
who have
a certain flair
for rolling the dice.
but when it comes
down to it
we are more than qualified.

IT SEEMS…

a poet is a sleepwalker
in a daydream.
this makes him absent
minded
and distant.
when you ask him for the time
he might just give it
to you.
and then
where would you be?
if not inside
HIS
dream.

The poems traverse a diverse range of themes, from the introspective “Silence is Golden” to the existential questioning in “Strange Place.” Olynyk weaves a narrative that seamlessly transitions between introspection, societal commentary, and cosmic contemplation. #BookSky

what will remain
for alien

to learn
when they sift

of time
and robot bones
in subterranean cities
are the only

left behind?

the beauty was in the life
not the shape.

the beauty inside
was ideal.

there can be idea
without form.

there can be life
without body.

a place where beauty
was born.

Listen to the silence
and it will tell you things
about yourself
only you
need to hear.
But first block out
the background
noise
that traps your ears.
And find yourself
sound
to listen to the years.

Eat your hunger
And never go hungry.

Be satisfied
There was no need
To fill.

Is it enough to be free
Of desire?

If you agree
Here lies contentment.

the weight of the world
is hard
to carry around.

tied to my neck
is the
mill stone
of my cares.

in the whole wide
world
there is nowhere
to go.

waiting to catch
a lift.

to put my burden down.

revamp the vampire.
the genre
has
lost its bite.
rouse the dead
for
old times’ sake.
they only come out
at
night.
the hunter
is prey
to passing fancies.
the zombie apocalypse
is a
no-brainer
at
the wake.
