ELEVATION of ... " Skill " ...
Like Elevation of ... " Will " ...

Can Be Defined ...
As ELEVATION of The Mind ...

Or In OTHER Words The Ability To RISE ...
Where You ELEVATE ABOVE The Absurd ... !!!

It's NOT What You've ... " Heard " ...
It's What You KNOW That Allows You To Go ...
To Places Where You Fear ... NO FOE ... !!!

ESPECIALLY Those Who Just CAN'T Cope ...
With Seeing You ELEVATE To A .... " HIGHER PLACE " ....

A Place REAL HIGH ... BEYOND The Sky ... !!!
Where Time Just Seems To ... Pass You By ..................................
While You Design ... ELEVATED Lines ...

Lines of Movement For INFUSION ...
Nutrient FILLED For Your IMPROVEMENT ... !!!

Wordplay Like THAT Is Hard to say ...
So I Think I'll Just Use ... ELEVATE ...
And Similar Styles of Clever Wordplay ...
To Try and Explain What I'm ACTUALLY Saying ...

What It Is That I'm Saying Is Use of The BRAIN ...
Is Something From Which You ... SHOULDN'T Refrain ... !!!!!!

ESPECIALLY If You're Learning A Skill ...
Like Writing of Scripts Kind of Like THIS For Films Or Poems ...

Or Maybe For Something Like YES ... How You LIVE ... !!!
Or ... Who You Enlist For Relationships ...
Partnerships PRIVATE ... Or Those For Business ...

ELEVATION With THIS I Think ... Well INSIST ... !!!
Is CLEARLY Something NO-ONE Should DISMISS ... !!!!!

But Who AM I To Say How To Live YOUR LIFE ... !?!

RESIST If You Like But If You Then FIND Yourself ... "In A BIND" ... !!!

You May Find Your Mind Decides To CALL TIME ... !!!!
Which Could Leave You Paying The ... ULTIMATE PRICE ... !!!!!

Why Would You RESIGN Yourself To Decline ... ?!?
CLEARLY Such Actions Would Be Quite UNWISE ... !!!!!
But As I Said Before Feel FREE To ........ Ignore ... !!!
You May Well Decide To QUICKLY Deride ...
The Words That I Write And TRY To ... IMPLY ...

That I THINK ... " I'm THE MAN ! " ...
Well THANKS ... Yes I AM ... !!!
In FACT I'm THAT Guy With Constant Supplies ...
of Words For The WISE That ELEVATE Minds ... !!!

MANY Are SURPRISED By Poetic Lines I Write Or Transcribe ...
Because My Insights SPREAD SO FAR And ...... W I D E ..........................
That Sometimes My Rhymes Leave People Inclined To Ask Me Things Like ...

.... "Virge, could you recite, that piece one more time ?" ....

YES ... Is My Reply ...
When They Ask To Hear My Poetry TWICE ... !!!!!

I Simply Preside OVER Being PRECISE ...
With EVERY Last Letter I Take Time To Write ... !!!

ELEVATION of SKILL Is How I Now CHILL .........................
Cos' It Helps Me INSTIL My Wish To FULFIL ...

A Level Much HIGHER Than Jack And Jills' HILL ... !!!!!!!!

It Helps Me ASPIRE To ELEVATE HIGHER ...
Than Those With THE SKILL To Walk The HIGH WIRE ... !!!

NOW THAT Is A SKILL Most People ... ADMIRE ... !!!
But Playing With FIRE May Well Leave You BURNED ... !!!!!!
When Will People LEARN That Living To KILL Is Simply ABSURD ... ?!?

ELEVATION of WILL Are Words WELL OBSERVED ... !!!
... Who Gives WHO THE RIGHT To KILL On THIS Earth ... ?!?!?
The SKILL To LIVE LIFE AIN'T Easy Or ... " Nice " ... !!!

We ALL Go Through STRIFE And Go Through TOUGH Times ... !!!
ESPECIALLY When We're Dealing With DEATH Friends Or Relatives ... !!!
THIS Poetry Seems To Have ... Taken A TWIST ... !!!

But ... ELEVATION of WILL ...
Can HELP You ENLIST A Place That's TRANQUIL ..........................

EVEN In Times When Life's NOT SO Nice ... !!!
It's EASY To SLIP DOWN THAT Slippery Slide ...
But ELEVATION of The MIND Can HELP Change The Tide ... !!!!!
And HELP You To FIND THAT Place As I've Said That's ... " BEYOND The Sky " ... !!!

THESE Words I REPEAT ... ONCE AGAIN For WISE HEADS ...
And For THOSE I've Mentioned Who Are YES ... IGNORANT ... !!!!!!!!
These Days When I'm TENSE I Pick Up A Pen And Simply Expend ...
My Stress Through Poems Until I Have Found ...
A Mood of CALMNESS That Helps Me Transcend ...
The Days When I'm DOWN And Wear A BIG FROWN ... !!!!!

ELEVATION Through Scripts CAN Give You A LIFT ...
Just Like A Piece of Your FAVOURITE Music ... !!!!!

There Is Now MUCH SICKNESS Where Once There Was FITNESS ... !!!
This TREND NEEDS To END With QUICKNESS And SWIFTNESS ... !!!

....... " CAN I GET A WITNESS ? " .......
So Who Is The Face Who'll STEP UP To THE PLATE ... ?!?
And TRY To ELEVATE ... BEFORE It's TOO LATE ....
To HELP Us Moderate The Things We NOW KNOW To Be OUR Human Traits ... !!!!!

I Guess In The END NO-One Can Change FATE ... !!!
But One Thing We CAN DO With OUR Human Race ...

Is ........ NOT Embrace HATE ........ !!!!!

When We CAN .........

........................................ " ELEVATE " ....................................
