Die In The Attempt (Disloyal To Cerebral/Spiritual Compass) Poem by Dorothy Kardas, Psy.D. Th.D.

To Immaculate Garment
Cleave...
So Dove chaste can never
Leave...
Too few are
Strictly molded
As gifts
Gratifying...
A world of good
For others...
In its place
Reigns
Ruthless rift
A death-defying
Shift...

Self-giving
..... far-reaching
Away from sole
Vocal preaching
Still, unheard of
And dolefully
Missing...
While the snake
In each corner
Each crossroad
Persistently
Hissing...

Self-indulgent,
Baseless logifying -
A substitute for
Repulsive vice -
Not defying...
To ascend beyond
The worldly scheme,
Reaching shadowless hill...
Far from burden of self-will,
Disposing of pseudo-kindness
And the slavery of fake humility,
Deserting amorphous,
Nebulous notions
Clouded by self-serving,
Convenient emotions...

To venture foolishly
Into realm beyond
Practical intellection -
Dwarfish cerebral scope
Yoked to mutant predilection
Is failing to abide
In defensible hope
While holding
Scanty facts
Of the Sacred Science...
Attempted scribble
Is just rubbish
Lacking
Trustworthy reliance...
Limbless, brittle thought
Has no muscle to
Prime Mover's laud...
Adorned yet armless thought
Exposing insolent 'gunshot'

Pseudo-testifier
Unpromising inverter -
Full Truth denier!
Broken, patchy thoughts -
The heart is dying...
Pasturing on a lot
Weather-beaten,
Dried out and
Unedifying...

Earthlings...
Less than
A speck of dust
Blissful End
Is bound to utter trust,
Yet, they cling
To 'valued' trash
Which Hand Mighty
Of Truth immortal
Will smash...
Just polluted rags,
Die down...
Unabashed brags...
All at fault
Carrying hogwash tags...
