Fateful Trenchancy (Concentric Exigency...) Poem by Dorothy Kardas, Psy.D. Th.D.

Fateful Trenchancy (Concentric Exigency...)

Rating: 5.0


The limitary eye
Can insensibly see...
And, the limitable bod
Cannot ever become nor be...
Has to be relumed
By Innocent Glow,
Sustained by unassailable
Oceanic Grace of Thee...
To justly and lucently see...

The unbroken pleas
Can they verily worship Thee?
Glorify fittingly
By proclaiming unswervingly Thee?
Adhering devotedly
To Undying Decree -
Be honoring Thee?
Cultivating obedience to Thee
Be venerating Thee?

Untiring obedience
Is not motion splendorous?
While, the right intent
Your untouchable demand?
Your Might pityingly
Crossing to lowly me
And me striving along
The magnificent pathway with Thee?

The sacrosanctity crown -
Most pleasing... consoling Thee...
Gained on austerities,
Abstinent, ascetic posture,
And fervidly fasting,
So the soul can lavishly feed...
Your will unfailing (inexhaustible...)
Provides the only fill satiable.

Can a fervent striver
For the fullness of Truth
Rejoice in works of eternity,
Be illimitably fruitful
With no constancy of purgation,
The garland of self-sacrifice
And armory of self-mortification?
Celebrating knightliness supreme
With no surrender extreme,
Supplying Grace resplendent, replete,
Vindication and fulfillment complete?
And, relying on the Morning Star -
The Ivory Tower,
Rendering pure Maternal aid
Through unrelenting intercessory power?

Is my eye rigorous
On foundational,
Ontological, Life-giving
Dependence on Thee?
Mindful of The All-seeing
Ever Watchful Eye over me?
And, can meritorious gifts
Be offered to Thee
To be repaid by Thee?

The patient...
'Life-blood' sighs of Thee...
My wrestling loudly...
Violently...
To be innocuously restored
(And as a dove free) ,
Aching...
For heart unblemished
Formed by Thee...

So wonderful to 'HUNT' you down again! Sensational poem, with so many profound thoughts and ideas. Really TOP notch - formulated to activate the 'idle' brain. God bless you, your words always force me to reflect upon such grave matters. Love, Pete

When people no longer worship their Creator and Savior with reverence and love... when worshipping and loving God does not take top precedence, their objectives and goals can't ever make true progress or improve anything. The entire poem is fraught with powerful and eternal meaning, and as always is skillfully presented. Dr. you are a deep and noble thinker. My most favorite idea is'patient, life-blood, sighs of Thee'. Thanks for shaking my soul...

So splendidly expressed thirst for deeper closeness with God. Indeed, not responding to God's love or denying His goodness is the greatest and saddest misfortune, and ultimately sad ending! Your wisdom and techniques are top notch! Poetry of this calibre is very rarely encountered, so we are grateful to know your work. God bless you Dr. Kardas and all your pro-life and other efforts. Love from the Cushings XO 10+++

Poetic masterpiece full of substance - timelessly essential notions that nourish our souls and awaken our spirits. Indeed, praying and living a good life is not enough... self-sacrifices and other holy practices are necessary for closer connection to God and helping others in their spiritual quests. God bless...
