Extrinsic Ones

What makes us see what most cannot
Why we perceive so differently

A DNA helix of unknown origin
Or some departure from the NORMAL growth tangent

Matured in some spiritual matrix
Or just dropped on our heads

In marked contrast
We attempt to intermix

Defying classification
Damned to eventual withdrawal

There are others we find
Who share these traits

Grouped only by miscellanea
Individually unique

Some power defying description
Ethereal fluid in our veins

An influential presence
And thoughts that raise most brows

Exposed for us? What they can't see
But there for you and me
