gently
before me

on a desk, or a table
rests the means to enable
me to craft a new fable
to run and leap like the sable
a squirrel scampering upon a gable

to perch on high

level with the treetops
even with the dew drops
before they appear on leaves and grass
and as the moments pass
above the uncouth, the crass, with aplomb and class

to perch on high

not a computer, monitor, or screen
but a single piece of white paper, pristine, clean
and a pencil, or a pen
this is one of my favorite things, always available again
for me to clutter up with poetry, it's a religeous experience, maybe a sin

to perch on high, and then, to fly

above this work of still life, a pregnant moment, this glory
how do i get across to a mere animal like many of we
the potential, the opportunity, the act of creation
the pantheon of art, intellect, and creativity, the nearly divine relation
of a pencil, or pen, and one single piece of paper, the correlation

of inspiration, asperation, imagination, an elations flirtation

with all of creation, and even with the Creater, all the world and history
all possible, sometimes, probable, once in a while, we'll get to Be,
creatively

this mere human being, this mammal, this fallable and maelable man
may one day be as close to God, as, say, a squirrel, a sable, a dog or a cat
created as perfect as God intended, then staying that way
us?  this world is sick and evil, faded, jaded, and peopled with egos based
entirely on waste, differences of taste
being better than, largely by plan, and lies, by intention and ignorance, like flies

i was perched on high, minutes ago, almost
(computers, phah!)

there is a certain amount of gratification in crumbling up a piece of paper
when faced with the fact, that what i've created is trash

getting another one
setting it down
setting a pencil or pen on it
and starting over.  perfectly.  gently.  what is that moment?

to fly

perfection, and me, trying to be, to become, to create,  
really, it seems everything i write or draw is a waste of time
it was perfect before i picked up the pen, now look what i've done!

delete?
phah!  can you think of a title, a word that defines the moment described?

p.s.  i am ussually surrounded by malevolent cretins, nobody on this site is a mere animal, 
my apologies if you are!
