By Charles Stokes – Warrior Poet

Are we subconsciously conditioned to respond a certain way?
The more convoluted, the more important.
If you make it easy- I’m likely to be insulted. It’s too simple.
Make it complicated, so I have to fight and struggle to understand the simple.
Let us use words hard to understand; maybe later we will boil it down.
Boil it into its essence.
Let us set our truth in his title- not in the substance of his speech.
Let us blindly follow the circle in its continual loop finding new start points.
Start points not long ago tried – Espouse the newness and challenge those –
Who dare say “Weren’t we here before?”
