In Truth

Enjoy.

Mutely mundane be this terrene.

Yet the Apple of Eve lies within.

Focus not on what is unclean!

But come O Daughter, seek Pristine.

 

For oblivious be these die-hard  beings.

Ever indulging in its entire epicurean.

They refuse such Decree from One so demeaned.

Belittling the Truth, shattering their Youth.

 

The Truth shall they tussle in idle vain.

Slaves to their aloofness, these presumptuous beings,

Ever consentingly awoken, with eyes half opened.

Yes O Daughter, these are your Hoi Polloi!

 

For Naught shall they moil and toil!

Condoning all that is enigmatic and loyal.

I tell you the Truth! Shall it be with Aeons of Eden!

The Truth! Shall it slay their ceaseless bane!

For the Truth, it alone shall it be their Home.

Wow!! very crisp and mystic."For the Truth, it alone shall it be their Home." I like that phrase. Just those ten words,speaks volumes to what life should be our focus,the truth. Very nicely written! I'm growing on your technique,the more I read you the more I connect to your thought processes.

I thought this is very different writing as what I usually read here.
I liked how you lead us technically sophisticated into your world;

The Truth shall they tussle in idle vain.






Slaves to their aloofness, these presumptuous beings,



Ever consentingly awoken, with eyes half opened.

Yes O Daughter, these are your Hoi Polloi________here,
how you disparage systematic, constructive ethical theorizing
in favor of inquiry into the meaning and cognitive status of moral
judgments. Well done. wow.

Interesting, mon ami, too interesting. As usual, the words of your poem swirl around my head and I try in vain to pluck them out of their symbiosis within your poetry! haha, I liked the feeling to this one, my brain is looping into autopilot, but I will come back and re-read this one when I'm less muzzy. Great work, nontheless!!
