Merited Spell - man can nay tell - Man can nay tell If life disregards, Said merited spell Save benign bard Bids serene dwell Despite ye regard, That risk may well Be placidly marred, By set endured hell Of invasive sounds, Affirm be the knell If ye maker ignores, Beyond human intel Ye having long past, Find point of return Will fix obtain cast, Should merited spell Ne’er be meant to last, Tho a man can nay tell! © Jean-Jacques Fournier Imagery - Wikimedia Commons Music – excerpt by Chet Baker, of Alone Together Audio – Jean-Jacques Fournier written in Sweetsburg March 27, 2022
Invasive sounds conjures all sorts of images. Well done, JJ.
Absolutely, dear Paulette, and one can almost hear the closely potential sounds of that mad Russian, Putin’s trigger finger. Thus so above the already ear crushing constant noises, that constitute man’s idea of peaceful daily living, spreading out from the cities of human daily living. This coming from yours truly, the once ultimate city dweller!
A poem for our time, Jean-Jacques!
If only we this human race, the present cause, could assuredly in time do for they who follow, maybe somewhat better than so far!
