Are you a follower of trying to be Sagacious?


Are you a follower of trying to be Sagacious?


(A lone voice whispers)


Here's to you

The readers, writers and poets in whatever field


Always remember

Seeking further knowledge is a gift


It's how we all grow in whatever we do


So never yield and constantly look for more ways to lift


Even if it means entering the long hours into a lone graveyard shift 


Keep searching like a metaphorical Indiana Jones or Lara Croft


For a treasure to help those who might be drifting in seas 


Where hope seems not to exist 


And who might just need something to darkness resist


Title: 

Self-Knowledge Knowledge


Do you believe in absorbing the esoteric linked to living 


The supernatural impressions linked to just giving 


To help clear your own pathways to find ways to deliver poetic prayers 


To those struggling with just living 


With any mental or traumatic depression's


To then walk down life's many metaphysical runways


Like a young Gabrielle Bonheur Chanel or an inspired


Paul Poiret


If so

Because I believe 

In you


Always be optimistic


For true belief

Lies in all you do


To help transform your soul

Into a sage or mystic


Allowing you to chase rare stars and wild Middle Earth dreams


To bind mistakes 

To white feathers 


To then throw them into Healing Fires


For their old powers over you 


To in rising grey smoke 

Retire


As you learn

Which new bridges to

Cross


And which old bridges

To burn


For 

Sacred Self Knowledge 

Is ubiquitous 


A chimera


A conjunction of wild beasts

Roaming wild


Living life through

Nine letters


Like a follower of being sagacious


Which to the child of the Revived


Can never be 

Denied
