Foundation

There’s a chord within the heart
Can only resonate to song,
There’s this about good poesy:
Elevates right, abases wrong

It is of architecture
In perpetual embrace
We conduct the business
Of all the human race

Ten minutes’ recital of
A tender poignant dance,
We’re ready to give life and love
Respect and grace another chance

We gaze into, as teaching mirror,
Self reflection, as it were,
Upon a higher order,
In the theater

In every way we know to look
Unto the world of Art
To give ourselves renewal
To commence a fairer start

Until removal of the stalker/targeter/vandal/arsonist following her allows her to approach any landlord ~ even for a private parking space ~ and to begin once again to create professional connections and to rebuild her life, this poet presently lives homeless and at a fraction of her nation’s poverty level ~ still working seven days a week to contribute to her society, however.
