Analysis of Higher Bred
Language builds a place to stand,
inside our own cognition
Each word confirms what thought instills,
in psychic recognition
Are you the true informant,
about what’s inside your head
1st person self awareness frees
—a nature higher bred
(Villanova Pennsylvania: January, 2019)
