Poems

Greenberg
Vetiver
We’re tasked to attempt our industries, not necessarily to close them.
Basically, there’s many adventitious tubers; prop, brace roots, & stilt.
If not deterring developmental organizations from salacious goings-on,
Most weltering dwindles. That's why, we celebrate champions’ faith afore
Acclaiming deductive patterns of reasoning or proven judgements’ footings.
Grass-like, fragrant, green, giving our days and nights’ significance, such
Environs clag with rain-infused mud are always oneiric in presentation, plus
Ever more meno than orisons. Concurrently, they’re slightly extra than nonce
Phrases if sists to commoners instigate diverse public transmogrifications, like
Altering lingua franca, the language of exchange, mayhap, empires’ tête-à-têtes.
By scrutinizing the presence or absence of new collar workers’ inclination
Toward abnegations of perfidious bosses’ grandiloquence, managers’ temerity,
We know how to understand why select dimensions of ancient ideas are found
In contemporary epistemology. Prescriptive morality continues an endless drive
To symbolically establish boundaries of self and society in various confederations.
See, arguments about authenticity, assisted by vested persons or groups, downplay
Relationships between words and actions, cause movers and shakers to dread horrid
Prosecution by influencers. Therefore, betwixt “truth” and “fear,” neoteric populaces
Fail to manifest wide-ranging linguistic, honorable, religious, moral reforms, collective Redistribution, reinforcement. By and large, these bounds change more than our media.
Unfortunately, today, this paradigm remains. Twentieth Century American higher
Education and Nineteenth Century ecclesiastical statements exploit shared directions.
They subjugate dialectal specialization, construct narrowly framed messages. Likewise,
They reify internal hegemonies, implicitly indicate “outside” raconteurs’ lack of access to Decision-making, remain intolerant of accessible speech norms, devalue fustian’s veracity.

Civilization’s hybrid deity-inspired/ humanly understood emphasis on honor consists of Commoners’ care avoiding credibly insulting diction plus poets’ caution to utilize honied,
Placating words. Such epidictic discourse, ever Quinotoxine in nature, stays too crude for
“Sophistications” like integrity and too minute for any broad domain of discovery. Hence,
Our exchanges continue to develop, to osculate with meanings elsewise forgotten. Aspiring
To higher truth necessarily costs intrinsic or instrumental behavioral changes morning, arvo,
Evening since etiolation happens only at rare intervals of insight, compassion, even humility.
Still, whether crow’s nest or lazaret, screened-off areas of ethics, all vital, linger inaccessible.
Broadcasting’s relationships to shared interests, those affairs’ attempts to dictate urbanity,
Too, impact reality building by altering findings. Else, demining vehicles can’t encounter
The future. New futharks, expansive, supersonic waves won’t blast haet, an iota nor value Compressed gas, negative gauge pressure. Rapidly clearing worthy objects requires spirits, Magic, faith for solutions. Prevalent fads, established folk wisdoms, thwart communication.
Note, we borrow older cultures ‘vocabulary, venerate logography, though we’re unsound to
Decipher brushstrokes as “house,” “duck,” or “teapot.” Wherefore, we lionize most nonhero
Classes, embrace knowledge, comprehension, analysis, synthesis, and evaluation. This view’s
Differentiated from “morality.” “Wellsprings’” standards’ framing brings forth over-all utility.
Besides, to redd, to set in order, goings-on, depends on circulating systems of rules,
On dominant modes of fathoming reality, even when unempowered persons respond
To rare situations. Ringing, tolling, keeling, all redirect high rises aside from critters’
Setts to forfeiture, not to bene results. By loosening demographic norms and thoughts
On invention, we learn how to defend nature-venerating prescriptions for action, avoid
Enmity’s superimpositions. Though rhapsodes are lauded for interpretive skills, selected
For virtue & heritage, during crises, they’re liable for imperfectly expressing truth. report Floods, the minimalizing of evidence’s worth, generates squabbles of mutual significance.
The media, withal, color our activities because of their relationships to symbols’ assembly.
Ergodic systems, seemingly, impinge on all points, remain represented by linked arguments
The Volume of Footfall
A hermeneutic circle’s potency depends on meaning’s evolution into action.
Interpretation informs readings, readings inform categories, categories provide
Accounts that protect the diversity of social ideas as well as shield moral purposes.
Yet, moral purposes don’t necessarily embrace etiquette but almost always triumph.
Notice, noncognitive behaviors; emotions, traits, attitudes, reactions, values, likewise
Proper judgments, remain somewhat analogous to affective behaviors; emoting, reacting
Conforming, processing values, integrating values, and judging values. Mercy, additionally,
Only stopover at persons engrossed in mindfulness, otherwise, in recanting nefarious deeds.
Cosmic mythos, the insight of bards, oracles, other gifted individuals’ dialectic,
Also, acumen, not description, nor awareness generated by exploring other cultures’
Acts; not prescription, sensitivity forced upon populations by rulers, is gathered from
Synthesizing many peoples’ ideas. Consider Machiavellian discussions of rationalization. Contrariwise, political activities devoid of wily, scheming, devious behaviors ineptly affix
Little vitality to the machinations of unscrupulous politicians. Rather, they transform beliefs.
In the end, we treat certain cases of writing, especially original manuscripts and first editions,
As exalted, as traditions of plurality, as transcendent, as famous for civilizations’ amendment.
During the Enlightenment, dominant modes of divining reality were behaviorism,
Learned or stimulus-response-based choice; nativistism, innate or else biologically
Predetermined choice; cognition, plus programmed or perception/cognition/actuality-
Interactively derived choice. These heuristics, warrants, assumptions, hypotheses fused
Elements of metacommunication. In succession, they enabled the successful resolution of
Utilizing logically naive, yet disjointed, standards for assessing human choices & responses.
We’d never, otherwise, become interested in making sense from comportments, of weighing
External & internal agencies influencing our interpretations of portions of sundry exchanges.
