Return Of The Prophet: (Inspired By Friedrich Nietzsche)

Rating: 5.0


After a long decade spent living frugally
On society's margins, I am now ready
To return with the blessed light of new prophecies;
With nuanced words that celebrate moon, stars and seas.
O the clear, calming spirit of profound solitude
Has provided me with firm, lucid inner truths;
That I want to share with this fearful, wayward world.
O, it seems, to raise the consciousness of the herd
Is a Herculean feat! Hapless Human kind
Can perhaps, in time, reach the sublime, hallowed heights
Of angelhood, if heart and soul and will are one.
In everything, our curious eyes gaze upon,
May we see beauty that transcends mortal despair.
May we live our lives freely without undue cares.
May we translate our bold, flowing visions and dreams
Into music, art and poetry that redeems.
