Resisted Paths

If the past really is 

prologue to perseverance

and that stubborn adherence

to the more resisted paths, 

right through the straits

of an incisive discernment

between effigies and Paraclete, 

between perjury and honesty, 

might there be hope still

for us, sinners, to see

those blossoms of entelechy?

Thank you for the comment, Kevin; yes, let's call it 'mysticism', it sounds better than 'incomprehensible'! 😂
