rational constructionism in an emotional minefield

rational comprehension 

does not adequately 

or fully embrace 

what is deeply happening emotionally.

and to live under the apparent guidance 

of rational constructionism 

is a disconnect from deeper truths 

that originally occur at the emotional level 

in retrieval from deeper places 

within the unconscious and the subconscious

that do not translate clearly enough 

for the rational mind 

to embrace directly with clarity.

thus we have loose-rule realism

as in cartoons, superheros, 

devastational and criminal 

as entertainment mediums.

somewhere between 

empathetic and cathartic,

merciless and devoid

there exists a realism buried deeply within.

not easily rationally embraceable

but substantive energetically speaking.

deep dwell voyeurism stirs 

in the somehow attracting but unclaimable.

horror is a surface term

if a conclusion is needed to be made.

but the energetic feel goes beyond 

where words can go.

there is no logical flashlight to be used

to see what there is to sense.

there is a callout for deeper truth to surface 

but as rationally presented,

only depicts fantasy 

or pseudo-realism by claim.

rationality has too many doorways 

and too many long hauls 

for the sea of energetic truth 

to navigate and still be 

in its original sense, real.

the energetics have no details of depiction.

imagine interviewing clothes 

during the wash cycle

to get what we were wearing

and where we went when this was so.

the absurdity of making sense as savior 

becomes audience clear.

you have to be of it and in it

to get the gist of it in the now.

we don't have that capacity 

in rational mind constructionism.

we want wetsuits and fins and goggles

to provide for 

an understanding's point of view.

we want "get back in the boat" 

to be an override.

the energetic truth has 

layers of muddledom 

and we have earnestness to get there

but make mountain-sense 

out of apparent obvious circumstance

and miss the entrance to the caves 

that dwell within.

to get to the energetic truth of it all

emotion is more the key-holder

than mental is the formal presenter . . .
