The Marketplace of Thought

The Marketplace of Thought! Don’t I love who I’m open to - would share soul with (somehow in words - in poetry, revealing me)? Must I place worth on goods ‘vain’ hawk to earn a look? Let self-regard be life’s canard! God Loves such cheer? May I find wealth in other’s health (I pray), by Grace of God’s intent, not courted rhymes that plague our times, end freedom found in ‘Will of God’ (that lights all life)! Oh, bless the ways God’s muse serves days! Count that enough! My labor’s mark you think a lark (not worth fool’s ink or up to snuff)? What you begrudge, I would not judge. I serve my truth! Is it so odd that’s what I’d share? Your truth is yours if it’s just Coors (in lieu of rent)! But rent’s still due (my point of view!) I’m happy though to share a beer, not make you wrong (to me, love’s song!) reciprocate without a squawk. Life shared’s a chance to change the past, hoist sail up mast, view world like birds!
