enchanting
interludes pause
before the verse –
wait
systems and
habits and maxims
and opinions and prejudiced
nations
all belt out
a single uniting
word that can be heard around
the world
wait –
enchanting interludes
pause before the verse,
perceptions
are least studied
and applied it does not
belong
here, like
classes and methods
and ethical cleansing
but
wait –
enchanting interludes pause
before the verse
can you hear
it? the call
of the wicked
it
calls for
your mind, dispossesses
our thought and our sense of
“US”
“where do
you belong”
it asks snarling and about to
lunge
it takes a
strong hold
admitted the principles without
inquiry
obliged to
accept in like
a manner a great number of
truths
but here you
are
exercising your
mind
questioning
its conditions
and its ambitions and its
collections
unable to
collect
unable to cohere unable to
correspond
so free
yourself
free yourself from these
chains
free
yourself now go
enchanting interludes
played beyond the verse
