Old Age and Treachery trumps Youth and Skill(again)

Having seen
the classical
and the modern
we find ourselves in
a timeplace
named postmodern
filled with
Irony
Sarcasm
Diversion
and Masks
and these are fine
and sometimes as
beautiful as
they say

I do not want
to forget though
that most of what is
beautiful
is ordinarily
and obviously beautiful
like water
sparking in sun
and sand falling between fingers
and a lovers breath

and when a man says
these words
in this timeplace
he expects to be called a fool
it is not a revelation
so
I am a fool
