Aspire

Aspire

 

Undress the inward sense -

The outside of the mind's body

Get rid of the un-respectful bored

Feel affection for achievement

Divest oneself in naked conceptions

Seize your un-whispered youth;

Be un-weary of time -

In a traveler's journey, never done


Never pine away in desire

Arise from grave images - aspire

Praise, escape reproach - establish change

Estrange, astound, establish;

Reach not to blinding dust

View your future with clearer eyes

Leave behind the calm region

One foot forward, even in the night

Predict it, control it - be uncommonly ambitious

Get behind phenomena, un-riddle the being;

Make it worthwhile, make it beautiful

To the logical - un-opinion

Un-guardian the morality

Enquire, un-draw the sand-drawn line

Know what's not

Be above inhuman values - Aspire!

Tinks ...

You guys captured my heart with the first line.

"View your future with clearer eyes" is a clarion call Sissy to look ahead with positive anticipation. And I agree wholeheartedly!

"Aspire" indeed - just like you two are doing so well together. Kudos to both of you fine talented folk.

Light and Love from big bro ...
