~ Gleaning Truth ~

~ Gleaning Truth ~

It is I, with my sourceless laments
Codifying, rather ambiguous intent
Attempting to reach, beauty, ground
By a senseless mind, wrecked and earthbound..

Why can I not touch the face, of God
Bring its light into perspective, roughshod
Tear away curtains, straight, into play's end
Dance gloriously to sounds, yet unsent...

Yes, It is I, swimming waves of fragrance
Without olfactory make-up, or sense
Can I glean any truth, without time
Perhaps a pregnant portal, from which I might shine...

Like wire and light-filled automatons
We see beauty, but miss the phenomenon
I search my heart, to find forgotten regrets
The sun rises,
                   The sun sets,
                                    Yet,
                                         Everyone forgets...

I have not forgotten my brother!  What an awesome piece.  It is eloquent I can almost sense the fragrance!

If you get a chance read my poem " Active Shooter" . It is full of conspiracy wit.
thanks for the entertainment of my eyes with this verse
Greg

YOU STAKE YOUR LIFE ON SOMETHING BEING TRUTH. IT MATTERS.
If you devalue what others cherish you " reveal " a quandry. Can you change your definition of your " self ", leading to those around you accepting your judgement. Once, viewed in a certain light it is only time and experience in others eyes that brings you in tune with their sense of reality. PERCEPTION IS CRITICAL TO MASS, AND MESS !!!  :)
In the scheme of things, a falsehood uncovered promotes aspects of life detrimental to the collective " good " !! If perceived as one who disrespects beneficial principle, you are condemned as being unworthy of praise or consideration, until PROVEN otherwise.
" IT IS NOT WHAT YOU KNOW, BUT WHAT YOU CAN PROVE " applies. The collective decision on formulaic ideals is taken as agreement, unless fundamental relationship parameters are reconsidered, by practical example or examples shown. TRUTH IS A COLLECTIVE ARRANGEMENT, BASED ON EVIDENCE. The wrong judgement can be reached if too many exist not ready to accept what matters in the case involved.
Approval ratings give rise to facts being rejected, if the collective make inaccurate assumptions based on warped criteria or data.
ESTABLISHMENT OF THE TRUTH FROM THE INFECTED POSITION IS ONLY ACHIEVABLE BY MASS CORRECTION. Based on all that matters to them.  It is ALWAYS realized " HONESTY IS THE BEST POLICY " ,after mutations occur to everyone's interest. No one votes for the harmful, do they ?
Neat work, relaying an important message.
THANKS.  :)
