He walks through a labyrinth
of transcendent mystical
knowledge
aged memories
of pleasures
living through his soul
socially diverse
sometimes poles apart
he is loyal to the choicest spirit of age
He knows solitude of self
Based on personal interests
thoroughly immersed
in timeless anthology
ideas of beauty and elegance
so unfathombable
flamboyant
feral…
not even demise
could knock down
this small home of
impression
being your breath
dreaming from sleep
the deepest root by which
can change the world
his
and ours

And as he 'discourses' through this labyrinth, may man recall
he does not traverse Gaia's face alone
but shares it with a myriad of other entities
living...and dead.

"He knows solitude of self"

Enjoyed the entire write.
This line oozes with depth.
Another great one Ms. Lee J.

Indeed...some do, some are...

Raise themselves above others.

Enjoyed this, m'friend. Very much.

LeeJ - You grab the reader and don't let go until the end. This -

"He walks through a labyrinth
of transcendent mystical
knowledge"

To walk "through" it requires confidence and courage. I'm pretty much lost in the middle - crawling.

I do love your choices, always unexpected and intriguing, Lee.

You drop the robes and simply write, and I feel a kinship with you when I read you.

That's one mesmerizing man, ain't he?

There is a circle;
within the solitude of self
may be found a doorway
to the infinite,
a total union with all existence.

"socially diverse"

I think that guy is rare at least in my world.

This whole poem just walks upright all on its own. Love it.
