Practically Daressence - 3WW CCXXVII (Dare, Essence, Practical)

Dare I question the authority's decree
cold the shadow of indecision's tree
longing for the essence of freedom's reign
lost in contradictions like tears in the rain

Practical is the line of the following soul
meandering visages after contemplative toll
thorough, degenerate the symptoms of lies
swept beneath floorboards away from their eyes

Standing at the foot of a mountain of gold
forgotten indecision and bone gripping cold
thoughts of the climb to the view from above
dull the insistence of obsolete love

I love that feeling of being centered. No matter what the circumstances. No matter the aches and possible deprivation. You captured the heroic spirit so well.

This had a beautiful flow and rhythm to it. How many of us have yearned to dull the insistence of an obsolete love.
