The Redemption Dance

Dreams of Red
Posts: 203
i made it to the ocean this week and it uplifted me a great deal... this one was written next to the sea........
Skylight fulfills the backdrop of every ancient occasion;
The ballroom it is for the dancing and labors of spiritual tides.
Music provides the landscape, touching the deepest recesses of the soul;
There is no recourse, Experience succumbs to the power of Time.
All triumphs are devoured through-out history's progression into pinnacles of perception,
But everything is redeemed upon the enlightenment of society's eternal curse.
Therefore mortality sings, "Behold!--The fleeting world so Beautiful!";
And, "Time, you devilish sphynx, your trickeries are stronger than me, Death!"
So sounds the division-bell between knowledge and memory,
Marking at once a stampede through the doorway into Nature's infinitude.
The agendas of status fail eventually, and their agents too perish beneath the hands of their own misconstructions;
Humanity is the invaluable aim, for the cosmos can no more understand itself than can flowers bridge an ocean.
Likewise did Hannibal traverse the Alps: by emplying the stature of elephants!;
Thus stamping growth onto the immortal tale of Earth's epochal lifespan.
'Evolution' is the name of our waltz, and where compliance is made, there Universal-thunders forge earthquakes of 'Renaissance';
The process is creativity, describable only as a raining hurricane of Dionysian-Bacchanal against the stagnations of institutional fertilization.
Below, in Culture's fields of azure-green,
The joy of existence resumes always as the fundamental truth by which Justice abides.

Very, very good, Dreams of Red!!! I enjoyed the whole piece but this part really stood out:
"The agendas of status fail eventually, and their agents too perish beneath the hands of their own misconstructions;
Humanity is the invaluable aim, for the cosmos can no more understand itself than can flowers bridge an ocean.
Likewise did Hannibal traverse the Alps: by emplying the stature of elephants!;
Thus stamping growth onto the immortal tale of Earth's epochal lifespan."
