Poem
Growth should be the ultimate criterion, nucleus and kernel of every annual pledge, for myself and other people who might gain, from a heartfelt commitment such as mine, that monumental new year down the clock aptly named, global village stepping stone infused with razzmatazz, celebrities whose sugar candy script relayed world wide, to rapt audience transfixed, their eyes glued, to mythic gauche banal pantomime, imbibing endless lavish honeyed cant, those once upon a time dull shibboleths, proclaimed loudly in the past so to speak, now anathema by modern age yardstick, yet for me this is a golden opportunity, to reengage with distant relatives abroad, to renew and revitalise acquaintanceship, to forge cast iron bonds in exotic lands, against a backdrop of stimulating habitat, the debt I owe my influential sister, Jay Pallen, has to be addressed without issue or delay, higher level generous support for those in need, sustaining local industry with staunch custom, wherever and whenever I really can, initiative in solid terms specific is key, I will endeavour to diversify my brief, make myself as interesting as possible, embrace new hobbies with a fervent will, cryptic crossword clues, logic fill-in puzzles, hatha yoga practice, meditation, fitness, focus even more when precious matters, come to pass as they invariably do, thoughtful discourse after deep reflection, our existence on this earth in grave peril, where prompt gestures are required right now, be rest assured I’ll tap the latent activist within, I must respect the human eye as potent lens, human mind potential gemstone vault, imagination that multi-hued artistic brush, creative hand sculpting lucid stanza, expect due diligence on all those fronts, foreign tongues are high on my agenda, lame excuses will be given short shrift, a roadmap for the linguistic bashful, I’m bound to plot an awkward wry detour, with fluent speech desirable denouement, however long that strict process may take, nutritious food is most vital for this writer, extra colour, spice, zest must reach his cupboard! perhaps I may have been remiss heretofore, rely on me to buttress resolutions with vigour, harness my resolve beyond mere transient aplomb, fire that inner gumption if the virus of doubt, that damned infernal plague should appear, as, perforce, it often does when least expected, emphatic as I am in grand pursuit of broad horizons, doesn’t mean that I’m an unfeeling person, insensitive to warmth, kindness or romance, but personal development a social obligation beckons, and as such a clear response shall be forthcoming, on my part to its portentous driven advent, composite of variegated traits that lurk beneath, be they flattering or flawed must at once, be subject to the harshest of all critiques, on a conscientious ongoing regular basis, where performance may have lapsed, into crassness devoid of authenticity, candid reassessment is crucial in my quest, irrespective of the challenges ahead one has to meet, I, Howard kerr, organic chemist, essayist, poet, computer buff, am on a mission, catch me if you can.
