 FICTIONS From reckless fictions of the mind, world’s martial nations still depart: therein the falsehood of Mankind. They feign cruelty to be kind, chastened with tears and severed heart, from reckless fictions of the mind. Shouting glory, yet beauty-blind, forever fair their poisoned dart, therein the falsehood of Mankind. Yesteryear, in distress aligned, crusading with celestial chart, from reckless fictions of the mind. Gracious, thus far in truth unkind, so starkly wise they’ll not restart, therein the falsehood of Mankind. Embellished knaves, heroic, blind, warring their true Thespian art; from reckless fictions of the mind: therein the falsehood of Mankind. By Psyche Copyright: Sylvia Maclagan, Buenos Aires, Argentina, 2008. ·······  ·······Mis temas favoritos
