The Web Poetry Corner - Frank Valentyn - The Care of Conium Maculatum

The Care of Conium Maculatum

by

Frank Valentyn

And when all is said and done my friends and we gave them fair warning,
When we’ve poured out heart and soul they will still refuse the dawning
Reaching out from inner core the hand of deepest friendship, selfless
Expect then not allegiance to a truth beyond their vision, helpless
Then dare to stand in humble solitude of purpose true to your design
Forgive them with the love that they so need and could not find
Allow then in their meagerness and littleness of sight the surfeit
Of purpose in this universe that quested, questing in so many minds
Against all common celebrated reason and reigning disposition
Pursued in flight, accused of heresy, divine dissent and treason
To realise the seeding tide in the face of inquisition -
Humbled in the knowing and taking then serene contentment
Quiet peace in scene of urgent zeal without contrition, unrelenting,
That those who stand with struggled cry of simpled condemnation
Have greater need and ever breed opined self-preservation
Allow then such divine convention, you and I, diverging
To find the sense of greater merging, greater being in cognition
Recognising self in other, wave of infinite, divine and mystic birthing
