Poetic minds are islands often found
In common reaches of the status quo
And in remote and deeper waters
Of vox humana in muted undertow.

PLEASE REFER TO NOTES:
Vox Humana is a stop system on a
pipe ***** which produces a sound akin to the human voice.
But the meaning of this poem regards
specifically to
the latin word for vox:
vocals, voice, expression.
Humana derives from human and kindness--linked to the concept of humanity and compassion.
This poem speaks of the suppression of our collective voice by censorship and persecution.
