What It Means To Teach Part One

Blunt bombastic poems, showing sanguinity of the soul, 
                                  through freedom of speech,

     With craftsmanship, demonstrating natural poetic rhythm that will outreach,

     These words prior to now, have been put into a rhyme, but are not all mine, 

                    You know who you are, Far away and close, also…

                What follows, is the answer to a question you have asked,

                                   “What does it mean to teach”?

  Most importantly, UNDERSTANDING is needed, giving access to higher abilities,

                                           A biological facility, 
   with wisdom and caution when it comes to content you firmly want to present, 

  So to reach the best concepts, for me to eventually accept as accepted, in time,

                                   Found within the subconscious, 
                                              but typically, 
               the conscious mind is distracted by society, so it’s beached,

                  Stuck like a whale, unavailable to sail the whole ocean,

                               I explored this area in slow motion, 

            Once unaware of it, but now mindful so I continue to beseech it,

                       I’m not naturally a person who would write this, 

                                        I’ve rationally studied, 
             used conceptual techniques to tweak tactics that are not weak,

Continued in part two.................

We often understand the subconscious through our hearts Quincy...we have taught eachother something pure, that freedom of expression leads to the freedom of the heart. I'm honored by your energetic poetry...J.A.B.

I really like what you are saying, especially we have taught eachother something pure, that freedom of expression leads to freedom of the heart. Life is awesome when we are learning, then we can see the beauty in so much we often take for granted or unaware of. Thank you Justin. Quincy
