VERSE - POERY - POEM


Name  it  the  premise  and  none  of  above
but  this a   submission ,  my  way  ,--I  think

Rhyme  and  rhythm  together  , are  not  poetry
I  believe
Nor  my   personal  grief , mental  thirst  or  lust
nor  any  clever  build-up  however  smartly  described
on  emotional  state  with    intellectual  stitches
 or a  filtering  shade  of  soul  behind
nor  the  vital  urge , social  storm ,  out-burst

Not  from  level  of  physical  thirst  ever
poetry  is  born
nor  from  emotional   -storm  or  social  strife
Until  we    have  exceeded  the  lower  three  levels
and  are   speaking  through  the  level  of  heart
with  the  light of    our  Psychic-  Soul -complex
not  with  knowledge  but  experience  full .

Words ?   for  that  do  not  search  Dictionary  or  thaussors
if  soul  has  conceived , words   like  spring -flower  will  flow in .

Have  to  exceed    our  physical  living ;  mammon  urge  too
Poetry  has  to     speak  from  luminous  Soul
and  even  expand  and   swim  beyond
like   fragrance  , --lone  .
