Funny, you write about the soul here, Kurt. This is a subject I am deeply interested in. I did write a few poems relating to soul, consciousness, etc. I just love the way you look at it in your poem. The soul and the \'matter\' for want of a better word, do go together.
Your writing is exquisite, usually way above the writing on this site. And you even got it to rhyme! Kudos!

I enjoyed this Kurt. Yes, truth does reject opinion that is a great insight
if everybody realized this their truths would become more apparent and their positions not so defiant. excent write...peace

Words of truth and written with poetic assurance the read becomes a learning curve Kurt - I admire the imagery used in the first line. First class piece of work.

A haunting poem, Kurt, that makes one ponder what life\'s promise really is, and if we will ever know.

I would say yes to the first three stanzas, and the flame will keep on burning!
Love your writing, Kurt, not only for the beautiful presentation, but the deeper meanings. Your poems always make me think and ponder, and isn\'t that what poems are all about; beauty and meaning!

10 Steps
FredPeyer said:
I like this, Kurt. Am trying to figure out where I stand. I know I had omniscience when I was a teenager!
Equanimity was never a strong side, too much of a temper. Through the years acquired at least some perspective and cognition. Was never able to handle prescience, while intuition is something that seems to come and go. Am still waiting for elevation and nirvana!
Kurt, I really like this poem!

The Muse Unrehearsed
Goldfinch60 said:
The Muse unrehearsed is so right, I sit down to write with an idea in my head but by the time I have finished the Muse has changed the meaning on many occasions.
Good write and very true.

Nope, good questions; as most questions are. When I teach, I always tell students with so-called
\'writer\'s block\' to go LIVE some more. It\'s the raw material we all draw from. There\'s an old school of thought (which I don\'t adhere to), that says \"nothing written before the age of 40 is worth reading.\" I think it was Bertrand Russell who said it—but don\'t hold me to that.
Emily Dickinson, locked in a second floor attic, is pretty much a myth.... She lived her life vicariously through others which would never be my choice. I think, to me; that\'s why her writing has an other-wordly or ephemeral character that often wears thin.
