Walt Whitman believed in a World Soul!

THE SOUL´S ARQUITECT

 

(By: Karla Wagener on September 11, 2020)

Seems like nothing shocks us anymore!

What about the little animals,

Burned in fires,

Lost in heat and smoke?

Their habitats ruined.

Their tiny hearts and lives broke.

 

Blasts of explosives, fires ravaging without control.

Heat increasing in temperatures never seen before.

Nowhere left to hide or go!

Firenados and disaster accumulate even more.

 

My heart beats serenely and composed

Believing in an inevitable regeneration.

What will it take?  Ask the younger generation!

The animal world, nature, and all of creation expectant to see…

Humanity meek, more kind, at its knees.

 

Compassion feeling, supplications…

The soul squeezed and stirred…

Desiring to conjure up some magic, verses or lyrics

That give hope and redemption to a weary, so deaf, materialistic sphere.

To instill introspection, responsibility

Perhaps an element somewhat extrasensory

Into a collective energy!

 

 

A Poem for Corona Boredom.

 

HUMDRUM

 

(By: Karla Wagener, on September 6, 2020, while watching a documentary about David Bowie)

 

Sure to throw you off balance,

Compositions of passions…

Knock you out of your seats.

Give your soul new rhymes, intonations, and beats.

 

When you live on the edges,

Look to the corners, closely, and beyond the ledges;

Being concerned with the whole picture,

Taking in all the lectures...

 

Kindling is bound to be lit,

And bring something special back

To what got thrown off track!

To discover new inspiration,

It requires a good attitude and drive

Making the dreariness become alive.

A Prophecy Poem!!!

 

A REQUIRED RETREAT

(By: Karla Wagener on September 6, 2020)

It could be that what the World needs most

In this apocalyptic time is introspective healing.

The World has been ill, with a lack of compassionate feeling.

 

It could be the World needs

This time for deep reflection, contemplation

To better understand the ills; develop a contrite heart and soul,

And renew its direction towards a new start, with better goals.

 

It could be the World bleeds,

And does not recognize all that has gone wrong.

Become aware, consciousness,

Take up a new better attitude, music and song.

 

The survivors of this obvious devastation,

Will be those bound to an elevated divine revelation.
