Emotion's Oceans

Under Water 
Mermaid cavern 'neath the swirling sea
Asphixiates or offers oxygen,
Uses air or brings it back again
Depending on soul's authenticity.
Echoed heart fresh start may chart, feel free
Creating through new insight 'yond the ken
Most can key into state where paper pen
And thoughts unite as reciprocity
Unbiased flows to serendipity.
Depth shatters superficial brakes "why ?" "when ?"
Eden rediscovers, sings amen.
Come heed Pope - Alexander - quoted, he
Marks "little learning may intoxicate,
Complete immersion serves to liberate."

Alexander Pope (1688–1744)

A little learning is a dangerous thing;
Drink deep, or taste not the Pierian spring:
There shallow draughts intoxicate the brain,
And drinking largely sobers us again.

Essay on Criticism. Part ii. Line 15

    I thought the poem is something I would write. I like the vocabulary usage and the part depth shatters superficial brakes "why?""when?" It was very well written, but the background is a little distracting.

    There is far too much superficiality in the wor[l]d and perhaps we all need to take more time to seek a deeper worth. I think the world would be a better place if we did

    Let's drink deep waters of the Pierian spring
    Where Muse can sing and bring us free;
    Let's breathe further through lighted path,
    Through inner way which once was dark.
    Whith heart's new insights sees the soul
    And can oxygen carry free all possibilities to love
