Poem
Post post Modernism Who wants modernity in any case whether lower case or upper case yet I suppose or not suppose not even propose when I suggest that everything is fragmented somewhat pseudo and nevertheless ancient in its beauty and all we have to do is pick up the pieces and they even become enlightened shine brightly in mosaic and tapestry Its kind of retro while some claim intimate and ‘ex-timate’ timeless as our times fly past and forward swelling emotion past that iron cage of rationalization which melts away under that sunshine of love propelled by the moon once we embrace those shadows powered by what is according to our lens and prism Plato had a whole in one when he allegorized the caves pugnacious Socrates when he questioned the lot Aristotle when even moderation was to be moderate Jesus despite or because his father’s imagery and plenty of fish The lean Buddha in Nirvana under that figured out fig tree they knew sort of that they knew nothing much but they knew Sure to be detached from all certainty gives Lacan freedom and we too have not to live in Foucault’s adapted panopticon structure can be constructed and torn apart and what is meaning anyway once it is decreed to exist We feel and therefore we exist no Cartesian doubts here and the poor Marx brothers paired humour with alienation Freud still plays with phallus ‘electrafied’ head on at the couch Lennon and Ghandi still gave peace a chance and Luther was King Cohen found a crack in everything where the light got in while Floyd’s wall calls for questioning and the paradox of learning So my answer to the question of posting modernity is… what was the question if it ever existed… infinite eternal ephemeral and transcendent and if my memory may recall oh well however translucent when shedding the light from the darkness and question…my response is three pronged and ambitious in love compassion and kindness and I don’t give a toss if its pre post or present cause what goes round comes round too and out of the box pretty fair and square with petals centred and centrifugal blossoms straight from the heart 06th October 2016
