a brief poetic simmer

 

once

again

the warmth

of sunshine

showered my being

awakening the inkwell of mind

overflowing in musing contemplations

of allegorical messages 

of a fertile womb

of mind seeking to inoculate 

others against infectious

lies of deceit

sowing apathtic seeds towards

empty scales of justice

and  plowing

that pandemic-abracadabra

oppressor syndrome

that we must uproot

in the awareness

of ancient poetic-tragedies

being a thing of the past

and that we must be even stronger

than that ancient survivor*

whose torched memory

ignites burning spears

of seasonal reaities

shaping the fall 

of winter-like discontentment

ushering in the springing

of our rooted renewed 

liberating spirits...

 

*Othello
