It was hard, really complicated to forgeT
Your attention to your inner world; in each mottO
You would look, delving deep inside your idioM
Of great selflessness and cognitive courage. A type of venoM
Spreading with winds of heresy…The truth was a clue, a fabulA.
I would ‘talk to the nature’ within myself, not to impresS
But to encourage the other thinkers and believers. The ‘bruttO’
Of my knowledge, as a ‘Summum Theologicum’ was formeD
By the Time itself, the Zeitgeist, the phenomenA
Of human self-reflection and the abrupt sound ‘quinQ!’,
As if I was searching for the fifth element; a high impromptU
Would become a gleaming mystery for theologists, an innate casus bellI
I didn’t expect my measurements and theories to be taken to the vast HeaveN,
Merely to reinstate the beauty of free will which is rare like a dinO.

* This is a cross-genre work.
It is a verlibraic telepoem which functions as a tiny trivia article and is to be used for education/self-education purposes but it doesn’t yet lead to the ‘roots’ of the used sources directly.
The author of this work uses simplified rhetoric and artistic tropes but expects of her readers and students to do some research on their own.
You’ll be able to understand a full scope of intertextual links in this experimental poem if you turn to available overseas sources and work with them.
Among subtle, but not definitive influences the author of this poem would name
Aristotle, Catullus, Horacius, Seneca, D. Alighieri, F.Bacon and numerous other great thinkers.
The author doesn’t aim to convince the reader of anything in the religious field, however allusions to religion are used as a prolonged intertextual metaphor for better quality of spreading multiliteracy and diversity in education.
