Long Extravagantly Poems

I’m in distress

Self-pardoning rights of predators and pirates
emperors and kings
CEOs and wealthy competitors
follow our over investment
in separating natural land and bodies
from oceanic surfing inside spirits,
yang ecopolitical strength of communal sight
from yin personal flow of sound,
resonant orthodox positive
and

chronic win/lose mistrustful
competitive dissonant miscommunications
and excommunication
which is counterproductive
for best Systemic Therapy practice

Wish I could completely forgive you...
Substantially forgive you...
Simply forget everything and start anew

In a world where dreams are rakish and quixotic,
Where quiddity seems extravagantly chaotic,
A chivalrous soul dares to be different.
With a heart that beats fervently, so magnificent.

And everything is at peace
Birds pacing towards their young
Wolves howling to the elegant moon

Down that wooden bridge
Across the black river
Further into the dense
And back to where I started

Follow the stars
The trail...

Where a young child had stood,
Enjoying his friends’ company as only
A young child could.

Where the child lay dying,
Medics there to save his life, 
Desperately trying.

X marks the spot,

REBIRTH
glories
of
a cultural flowering
a revival
  once barren
in a
traumatic fragmented
                schism
 a comeback
an
elaborate
   creative perspective
on crossed
    horizons

this discovery

immediate
  in maturity
with small measure
yet simultaneous
possibilities

extravagantly
grandiose & complex

 a lifestyle
well made
in symbols

on a small scale
genre scenes
    a relative calm
of elegance
simple
   satisfying
     longings

 Sharp eyes fixed on the meadow's edge
