So you take
my hand, lead
me away, off
pages linear,
to swim in
timeless rivers
of twilight;
lead me past
manic labyrinth
of answers,
to rest
shaded beneath
wild grove of
ancient questions;
lead me away
from organized,
orchestrated
processed pre-
fabricated advice,
standardized
prescriptions,
coercive instruction,
and you bathe
me in untamed
silence, in raw,
pure stillness, in
undiluted harmonies
of transcendent
serenity.
This went through several versions and multiple revisions, and is one of several poems I've tried to write in the past couple of weeks. The theme & subject matter is consistent with what many of my poems address, so I won't repeat myself with much explanation of it for now.
