Perspective It’s all about perspective
he said
About transcending
and letting your spirit soar
Release it to the sky
Let it travel
unfettered
into the universe
Only then
will you be able
to truly see
and feel a part of the whole
All well and good
I replied
but it’s noon
and my stomach’s growling

Well, you certainly fooled me with this one. I enjoyed the fun in this write,
where you take us from something very profound and memorable with a shrug
off with a hunger pang.
No need to pick at this - it stands on it's own. So wonderful to have
you back here,
Loved it, every word.
blessings,
Deni

Kenneth, a very well put piece. I can see a candid view from several geo-political angles and yet you keep your persuasion without tipping your hand.
This is quite well constructed and poignant. I guess the image left is the image to catch, not the soaring or the dreaming, but the pragmatism of survival.
In honor of your homogenous imagery, or in spite of it; I will not muddy the waters with mine. I have learned that the realistic view is often lost in the destinies paved by somebody else.
I have paddled the boat but also consumed the water. Sometimes I can't tell the difference.
