Observation

"Observation" by David Hart
At daybreak, mankind, sacred in seclusion
Cordially is wisked away
Those who walk with calculated steps
Keeping secrets live in this secluded
Village, while a
Possessed mad philosoper comes forth and
Bewitches a nation.
This shabby philosoper plunges into a
cryptic idealism
A heart's blissful palpitation beats
For life and wisks an insane mankind
Away. (DHart 2005) Originally written in Russian. See www.poetrypoem.com/hart1
