Division's Chord
Letting go of
my righteousness
to the left
of my conscience
Hearing a music
that I love
in liberal sanctums
that I scorn
Escaping
the polarity
and fences of
my persuasion
I add my voice
to Heaven’s chorus
singing above
— division’s chord

Abstract philosophical reconciliation grounded in personal spiritual experience.
Moderate density: 4-5 distinct ideas across ~20 lines, steady progression.
Hopeful, transcendent tone despite acknowledging internal conflict and contradiction.
Meditative yet propulsive; movement toward resolution without explosive intensity.
Approximately 15 lines; falls in 7-15 range.
Rich metaphors: righteousness direction, music, sanctums, polarities, heavenly chorus.
Pure lyric introspection; first-person internal voice throughout; no narrative or dramatic personas.
