Germ of an idea
Adrenaline rush
Set your own agenda
breaching convention
Step back from fatalism
airlifting invention
Curb mind meekness
a silent ring of pretension
Words of flourish
no contamination
To unlock a brain
locked on compaction
Red hair intense
thought-thread ascension
New standards of beauty
but with complication
Discovery evolving
with fertilized alteration.
Revised poem: Spring 2020
