The Postulant at Dusk

If true confession,
As with the sun,
Burns all remaining left undone,
Then dear persuasion,
Oh sweet delight,
How long these embers,
This deep twilight?

good question, imbued with a poet's thinking!   great read!

The role of poetry is to utter the un-utterable; to open up
spaces of consciousness and resistance; to language oppressions; to
re-language historie

Persuasion can indeed be a delight.  Just like this work of yours.
