4 Kan
Yellow Self-Existing
Seed
The possible Poetry
Of a Life
Can take One’s Breath away---
But wounded Psyches
Organize around Defense---
A Fortress medieval
Or Forest primeval
While the Princess within and
The Prince without
Aim Arrows of Projection
Blindly over Walls
Finally a benevolent
Force arises---
A Bid for Consciousness---
A crucial Cry for mythic Love
If ever psychic Sleep seduces
Refuse with Power doubled---
Overcome the Tragedy
Of Life without its Poetry.
