Sensus


The Veil of Perception,

what lies beyond

 

Our senses and memory,

all time put upon

 

Lying within 

or lying without

 

Inherent by nature,

shadowed by doubt

 

Primary function,

will scholars proclaim

 

But second to that

—our reasonings change

 

(Bryn Mawr Pennsylvania: October, 2020)
