PostPoems Be Artistic. Be Creative. Be Inspired!

when mystery unfolds itself

that's when

guilt turns over unburnable branches

suspense speaks without

any riddle in its course

bravery sides with the lowliest coward

the profane sings in propriety's sore stead

racists begin to embrace diversity

and cultural appreciation

and mockery loses its leverage and sting

in universal dialogs on appeal

experimentation stands proud

when confronted with narrow, rigid minds

violence begins to look pointless

stupid and one dimensional

in the eyes of adults and children alike

100% literacy is revered and implemented

world wide

and the child that was all of us once

and in many ways still is

grows inwardly

much more efficiently

than simply up

no longer

a refuge of himself

ere a spiritual peasant

but a truly successful individual

housing a sound and healthy soul............
