Questing Everywhere Except Inside
Modern poetry modern verse contemporary poetry contemporary verse modern poem contemporary poem
Too many try to live by trifles taught
Them by a fast-filled Buddha or a saint,
Pastel in spirit by the time they sought
His insights hoping they can wipe out taint
While being human. Fighting nature, man
And woman searching Plato or the Christ,
These scavengers decide to find a plan
To save them from themselves, a magic heist
To realms of crystal virtue, abstract wealth
Of spirit, soul uplifted by the tools
