Poem Artwork

If we were to follow the judgements

Of the predetermined mind,

Who would be left alone

And without a sagely curator?

Not only would it be so with those

Who know the sequences

Of wisdom and feelings, and make

Their own selection among them,

But it would be so as well

With the stupid and unthinking men.

 

As for the latter, who have not such

A determined mind, to have their negations

And affirmations is like the case described

In "setting off the destination today

To have arrived there yesterday."

It would be making what was not a fact

To be a fact. But even the sage kings of old

And spirit-like creatures could not have known

How to do this and how could someone like me

Be able to do such overturning; isn't it a puzzle?

Your poetry is so deep and thought-provoking, the mind does predetermined things and when we find our truths we figure
out the puzzle...

Always,
Deborah
