![]() Emotional content is in the mass productive mode Archiving what we feel incredibly capable Encountering understandable things Represented in a collection of simple reasoning How remarkably unique to each individual situation Simultaneously emblematic, yet a form of human industry Creating our basic traditional needs, our cultural archives & paintings Where nature emerges quite ready to repeat…history in the making Clearly, death shall have no dominion… In the potential of thought…transcendent intertwining spirits Explaining an awakened persistent knock Waking absent-mindedly with feelings in our pockets Running home from school, taking larger strides Refusing to look, to either side A variety of cottages, shining through dusk Smiling with fireplace arms around us The price before birth is embossed on our bellies Giving up our cookbooks for wider margins of jelly Relations containing everything we need Penciled and chiseled on my soul and sleeve Objects adapted to human use Grows softer in enhancing our value and forming our muse In mass productive aesthetic values project Contemporary life and you ain’t seen nothing yet We interact with hopes and dreams Originating from our individual needs But what if the value drew lyrical sense To dismiss the aesthetics and tear down the fence An appreciative more thoughtful intent to meanings Of the value of what we dismiss as insignificant things There’s a place in the suspension of emotion Where thoughtful appreciation associates devotions I believe good thoughts live and thrive unto forever and never hide but array a beam of much needed light upon each and every child lost in the night and never asks for change? |

Lee, I have read this several times now and you my dear have penned a masterpiece! Into my library it goes to read again during quieter times. ~Summertime Smiles & Hugs, Nancy~ ~The breeze that kissed you on the face, Has held me in the same embrace~ [This message has been edited by Enchantress (08-20-2003 11:24 AM).] |
