Brilliant!
forgive me dear Poet, I couldn\'t help
scribble a few words as reply
to express what your words
inspired in me, thank you!
(Some poetry is purposed
to transport us and have us
gliding
above linguistic or imagery\'s
creative clouds
then, some poetry
grounds
our arrow impeded ankles
\'like Achiles\'
deeper
in our quicksand\'s or bequeathed circumstances
of fate
reawakening those bruises, we strive
to keep suppressed, deep within
and in reading
our most hidden truth\'s, being poetically
expressed and distilled
to resonate with us so accessibly
comforts us and offers us
that seed of inspiration
to question:
if we\'re not the only ones sharing
this accursed
trials and tribulations in life
maybe
there\'s a path, a window of opportunity
for us, too
to survive and someday
ink something, by deed or word
that others may relate to, so instinctively
and thus, our life\'s story
may make that Ulysses
\'metempsychosis\' dream
a reality, as a mantra
for realising the Phoenix potential
we all harbour
to reinvent ourselves and curate
what happy-ever-after
we may be afforded by fate..)
