Foreign Correspondent

in #poetry • 6 years ago (edited)

Learn to be a foreign correspondent
in your own country
question its motives
policies & procedures
laws are dead
without spirit

Learn to be a foreign correspondent
in your own mind
four-wheel-driving through your thoughts
aids stodge dislocation, scale removal
opens up another room
another world

Learn to be a foreign correspondent
in your own heart
hurl against the darkness
a thimbleful of love
pull weeds, let others hoe a little
like snuffling for truffles, let your love
root out diamonds on the inside

      Nicely done..

      would probably need to register with the government to be a foreign correspondent...

      Having lived in 3 different continents ..I can appreciate what you are trying to convey.
