Wrestling with time,
an illusion supreme
Its trinity empiric,
three masks to deceive
Past, future, and present,
our dreams undefined
Outside of their stricture,
new presence unrhymed
Rejecting convention,
short sighted and slight
Imprisoning our vision,
with capture and fright
In seizing this instant,
its moment sublime
All truth flowing freely
—unfrozen in time
(Villanova Pennsylvania: September, 2019)
Bleeding Free
Is there a higher art
than Martial Art
To live or to die
—all wounds bleeding free
(Villanova Pennsylvania: September, 2019)
Assassin Of Time
Have you murdered the future
by destroying the past
The present to judge
—sentenced at last
(Villanova Pennsylvania: September, 2019)
Eternity's Seed
“The exhaustion of passion…
the beginning of wisdom”
A souls inner vision
—the true meaning of life
(Villanova Pennsylvania: September, 2019)

Kurt,
Super writes with quotable gems such as...
“All truth flowing freely
—unfrozen in time”
and
“Have you murdered the future
by destroying the past”
‘destroying the past’...
I cannot; therefore,
I have not ‘murdered the future’
I love reading and mentally
interacting with these poems!
~Laura~
Thanks so much, Laura.
My pleasure!🤗
