"Let them squint and ask anew

dang that's pure gold.

Thanks dear shadoe - new spectacles

Yesterday I searched for a dead poet's grave in LA, today I'm reminded the real poets are here on DU, alive and making the world stop to think....

You always grab my attention, whale. Another great liquid gold thought provoking poem, sir.

Thanks Case - that's a wow comment - in truth those last 3 lines had little do with me - just the last bit I remembered of a waking dream - we do without doing - as that dead poets gravestone read:
Don't Try

If you dreamt it, then the words had everything to do with you. It's a gift. Poetry flows when we don't try, whether the words materialise on the page or a snatched from the air above, it's a poet's purpose to give the words a voice... and yes, those were the words on the dirty old man's gravestone.

While logic--invariably--'dictates' that we view certain aspects of life with a more defined, "on-the-surface" approach....

it is, often-times, with the 'eyes' of our hearts, that we truly see, that which has been 'disguised'.....[the]

"Rhythm without musicality,
Mortality without reason,
Religion without morality."...( powerful lines!)

An enjoyable piece, to ponder, my Friend!

So Cleverly Crafted!
