Today I am within this time where space is violated by crates of limitation stacked one upon the other in and around mind’s innocence. ‘tis the crates that keep the mind well and truly confined and there is no disgrace until the moment comes for clearing out the store of the implanted. Sometimes it’s done, the floor is swept, mind becomes an adult, and choice stands large and regal in the silence of a void. To the side the aid of ignorance stands tempting in the shadows but it’s called in simple parlance a survival tool in a world where crates are comforters and stagnant air a crutch. And so of adults ignorant who choose the side again, again, beware the large and regal because it’s mass an awesome force until the floor is cleared again and ne’er again is littered with crates of limitation!

Helen, this speaks volumes to me. Given our stage in time, it will be awhile before the younger generation "gets it"...but when they do, they will stumble upon this poem again, and think, "why didn't I see it coming?" |
