Latent
*********************
An undiscovered talent wonders waiting to be exposed
The power of reason can be exemplified, a latent quality.
The known geniuses who found the switch, their minds metamorphosed,
Brian Cox to mention one, a living reality.
They say mental telepathy is a latent talent.
I think that is a total fallacy, intuition I would say is more likely.
Geophysical latency, a piece of carbon, in it a latent diamond.
A sandy beach what latency lies in its depths,
Lalique, Tiffiney, Daum, Steuben, glazed holes in walls.
Poetry, in all human life, a latent talent,
sadly not all can reach the switch.
Poets, arnt we the lucky ones'!
