Retrospective Phrasis Part 1 Recited

COMMONPLACE PHRASIS  part 1
Doubt is our passion,passion our task,
erupts from inside made from whom
we are.Dark&passionate filled
with drama.this artistic volcano
from which poetic lava flows.All truth
&heartache,filled with stirrings of
imagination,a kaleidosdcope of
eloquent reason,deeply held.An
essence of aspiration yet multifaceted,
elusive,yet personal within this miracle,
caught by the tail,radical,imaginative 
wistful beauty of primitive days now
gone.A watershed,vivid&simple steps
out of love’s journey,attracts as a moth
to a flame,so easy on the ear yet
speaks from soul to soul.
From  Retrospective a commonplace book 2009
Listen to me recite this part phrasis on youtube under my pen name ichthys chiro
