Soul Shaped Fanfare
The fierceness of the phenomenon
Cultivated
In the tedium of time
Made
Sublime
A look in the eye
Of
Savage grace
The physiognomy of a face
About
To
Go
Into space
Capturing the precision
Of depth - Surfaced
Precise
Refracting exact
In
Fragments
Of
Ice
Holding the whole
Of a
Life
Given unto
A
Sacrificial purpose
Written in
Sacrifice
To take it ever
Further
Into soul shaped
Fanfare.

Author's Note
I grew up a fan of ladies figure skating.
I really appreciate the deeper philosophy
of sports.
I like the idea of concentration
and having a vision...
To penetrate and maintain hold of the vision.
Thinking back to some of the extreme things
I did, in my quest for "soul shaped fanfare"...
It is quite astounding to me...
I never cared about winning or losing
or what people thought about me...
It was just... Pure.
Nevertheless...
I was watching some ladies figure skating recently and...
I saw the Poem!
Maybe I always did...
But now I did, in a more profound way.
Its the vision quest.
Sometimes youre suddenly seeing...
Deeper
&
Deeper.
That's all I ever wanted.

Thank you so much Lil.
Oh yes...
So...
The last olympics... Well... I was in exile.
And...
Although I did have a mini flat screen television
lights out were such that it was just before the ladies long program, where it was the two Russians:
Zagitova V Medvedeva...
Oh... That was such high drama.
:)))
I watched the thing like laying on my side,
with the television to my left, under the blanket...
I was just waiting to be "caught" but it worked perfect....
Damn...
Zagitova absolutely killed it...
I was so so impressed...
That was one of the best
performances I have ever seen.
Under all that pressure...
They both killed it actually.
Medvedeva was such a fighter, too...
I do think that the new scoring system
perhaps effected the outcome, to an extent...
It was so close...
And I think under the old scoring system,
artistry was scored different.
Now...
Man, the ladies are doing totally
off the wall stuff.
Looking forward to this years Olympics
but may be hindered by certain geo politics and such.
