At one time in history the poet was revered for the soul of his/her words.. a philosopher, a mystic, a counselor, a lover of truth and beauty, a visionary... ever in revelation...
Heard is the lament, offered are the words of A POET Counselor...
Shared in reverence, in revelation, in resolve...
... be this the counsel of the soul...
ANOINTED
webs of thought, echoes of time sound
the din of shocked sensibilities
what was, now is once more
hush, hush be the cry, the plea
free what is trapped deep within me
shed these shackles of shadow and despair
heed the cry for resolve and Creation's care
listen, listen, and there shall be heard
the search, the want of the guiding WORD
let there be a command of self whole and true
let the bonds of torment give way to light ever new
live the embrace of GOD's majesty and supernal love
the blessings of grace, the sun, the moon. the stars, above
within your BEING the power, the volition to be
Anointed by the PRESENCE OF THEE.
