Undiscovedred Continent
I am an undiscovered continent.
Unchartered lands
holding secret treasures,
untouched by hemispheric pressures,
independent stranger to mundania,
republic soul seeking insignia,
deflecting emblematic trances.
I bear no flag nor swear I allegiance
blindly to any cause not my own
yet will I beat the drum and march, alone, but not lonely.
To champion what is right, I might
even for a while join your fight
but my untamed heart requires gentling like a beast,
wind wild and furious from the pain of unrelenting longtitude
and so I remain
an undiscovered continent.

but my untamed heart requires gentling like a beast,
