if only the soul could somehow be
graded on a curve
then perhaps man on the whole would
not be so terribly absurd
at his every dilemma and uninspired
word
ah, but supposed sanity is a most
exasperating bird
flying off the handle
away from one
with some vestige or another
of reason or not
damning all but the bemused
for what he, himself should have got
satisfaction
gratification
self worth
and the sage advice hailing from
the purity of one's spirit
pointedly put
follow your heart
and each of our own little worlds
will be a better place to dwell in
for it!....................
