“Poetic & Philosophical Interlude”

From The Blue Pearl by Kevin Boileau, Ph.D., J.D.

 

 

When it stopped making sense

I let go of my desire and opted

Instead

For virtue and truth

Pushing away the noise

That pulls.

Fragmented slivers of perception

One after the other

Continue pushing each other

away

So that vision of the Whole,

impossible.

Thus, I am at once both lost and

liberated; looking for signposts

Along the way

Which

Always seem heralded by the blue

Iridescence.

The dark penumbra of the walking

park remains forever etched in my

Consciousness.  Unsure that I will

ever return to the shadows there,

I strain to recall her face

Calling.

Mother Death.  Sweet and bitter,

Soft and genuine.

Always with me speaking the

Words; there is more; there is more.

Do not be enchanted into egology.

Abjection rules.

And all the while the tall, large frame

of admonition walks alongside.

“Couragio!”

The royalist inside falters as the

Governorship wanes.

Lost.  Eroded.  “Couragio!”
