Dance of Perception

Dance of Perception

A Poem by The Mad Prophet
"

How far can you make sence of what is around you. Learning how to, and how far to go. Life, and death, I cover a general subject here.

"

 

Dance, the dance
Another mirror to shatter
Another mind to explore
 
Dance, the dance with me
Perceptual manipulation
Deep inner resonance
 
Dance, the dancing prism
Of thoughts and colors
Coloring your thoughts
 
Dance, the dancing beauty
Of life and glory
And of course even death
 
Dance, the ever flowing tides
As you move in life
So does the cycle of life
 
Dance, with our Mother
As nature is keen
She always takes the lead
 
Dance, the wave of memories
For one can’t forget
All the Karmic lessons
 
Dance, on the tight rope
Learn to fall down
Then learn how to get up
 
Dance, the ever burning flame
Passions that overwhelm
Consuming even our souls
 
Dance, the dance of pain
The answer of every problem
Lies on a road you experienced
 
Dance, the dance of wisdom
For your hardships holds truth
In every life problem
 
Dance, the dance of sight
See what needs to be seen
Even if you were told not too
 
Dance, the forbidden dance
Taste the truth
Wield it by your will
 
Dance, the Dance of Perception
For we are not blind
We will always be free from are minds

I love this. It is so deep and thought provoking. I was going to paste my favorite sections, but that ended up being nearly the whole poem. You have a way of looking at things that is unique...I know we all do, but you put it into words so well. Great job....I did notice in your last stanza, I believe you used the homynym for our "are" inadvertantly. Maybe you meant it that way. Either way it is a great poem.

I loved the flow of this, the swapping of colors per stanza added to the intensiy and depth and I enjoyed this read.

Awesome poem. I like how you changed the colours throughout. I just wanted to make a quick comment about the last line "We will always be free to from are minds", I think you meant to write "We will always be free to form our minds". If I'm wrong, and it was meant to say "from" and "are", then I apologize. I figured that if it were my poem, I would want somone to point that out to me as well. Very good poem though :) Keep up the writing! =D
