Susan Gentry Poet Rhyme

Mockery

Mockery

 of opulence

creates

vicarious consequence.

An impetus of 

confidence

will exult

consciousness,
     
adorn

chasm of 

commoness,

silken

providence.

CayCay Godwin October 27, 2018 at 7:43 PM For me, each complex, profound thought peeled away its truth in a way that totally resonates with my own perspective of truth. This is impressive, it is wisdom and quickens my hope for like-minds actually being in the universe (I often wonder about those I share the planet with.) With gratitude, I enjoyed .... CayCay
