" Not Sure "...

" Not Sure "

Not sure
appearing
to have been
shielded
from the indulgence
of neither

running the country
nor becoming
the presumptive

while evoking
breathtaking justice
for love and loss

at turning points
shared by an audience
on war horses
for uniformed officers

as arduously "spit-spot"
codes of honor
being enriched by harmony

plus effusive melancholy
from wayward products
of the bemusingly avant-garde

somewhat bebopped
at eighth bars
spiraling onward
soldiering on...
