The Truth

A Modern American Flâneur

To gild the lily

An endeavor quite silly

If the curse of verse

Can’t hide in reverse

A Modern Flâneur

You are a stroller, walker, wanderer, idle and dispassionate observer of the  vulgar and sullen sceptre of human repair.You will back-up, swerve, curve, climb or descend to near or far, but never to go straight and rarely  slow, to step outside the alien apathy of the freshly colonized collective hubris of modernity.
 
You have emerged from the bohemian shadows, neither fish nor fowl, absent such suffocating boundaries as the flesh, incarnate from the repressed shallows of a disparate society to reanimate a new space born deep within  the consciousness of restraint; rendering your clarion call.You are no longer the ambient observer of remote urbanity, but modernity on your own path to source all life's nuances both fleeting or remis.
