MY ALLEGIANCE - The Abandoned Project / Canto IX

Most likely to be published sometime in latter 2017 or early 2018, my 10th book currently entitled; 100 Proems & Poems on the HUMAN ABILITY to REASON, HUMAN RIGHT to CONSENT & Other Neglected Matters. The following will probably be included (in the bonus section) upon further editing, and front cover below merely a working version....

CANTO IX - Inhumation of Logic


No legal plunder; this is the principle of justice, peace, order,
stability, harmony and logic.

Claude Frédéric Bastiat (economist, 1801-1850)
The Bastiat Collection (book)


Antiquities long discommoded the modernity
Vacillating between mysteries or discoveries
As contemporaries’ provenience for agitation
Wrestling the truth of obvious sagaciousness
Lurking in the twilight of oblivious histories
The dawn of consciousness, a venal genesis
A vacuous eternal to a surfeited amaranthine
Lovers languishingly pine under the umbrella
And withstand the presumptuous aggressors
Once nature’s bowels were cruel and blessed
Burrowing ache within every benevolent cure
Quenching thirst from dearth’s supple breasts
Satiating hunger from death’s craving trenches
When passion contracted and reason protracted
Medially time’s immemorial tumultuous loins
Alas liberty sprung, behold liberty conjectured
Man’s covetousness of such inherent character
Her vines effectuated the inhumation of logic

Come let us Reason. Peace is always a Choice.
