crafting of words

as if words be crafted

as the mind-work of think's dexterities

producing the shimmers of thought

those standalones that pose as marvels

for subjectivity to ingest 

the impactfulness of meaning 

as sensory forms of absorption 

personal renderings taken to heart

as the lustful triumph of comprehension

then shifts into the jaw-dropping claims

that understanding formerly ventures forth

the inward animation 

resulting from such efforts

cognition offered as either a press-pass 

a backstage entry

or free entry into the experience itself

to be in the know

to be learned and abreast

to be beyond acquainted and appraised

to be part of the ongoing savvy

the extremely well versed

the keeper of the know of what's what

even maybe who's who in that regard 

and this all starts 

with the crafting of words . . .
