possess man transcendental powers?

possess man dormant depths of perspective?

every child has a golden age
wherein everything is spiritual
and adventurous
and for that sake alone
meaningful

the child loses her wreath of honors
the tiara in gold and jewel
as the child concedes her phenomenology
to the frames of reference
in dogm with their culture
 as they must
 or else

at last, the golden age ends,
mere frail memorial remnants
remain
down there
in the mind of her,
some fractal recollection
of paradise o paradise lost!

how could a childhood look
should we encourage the golden age?

is she to be driven to insanity? 

to maddened suicide or some otherwise self-destruction?

should she explore properties within herself we today designate as parapsychology?

perhaps, in the best case scenario, she becomes very creative.
after all, is not art about the only form of transcendental activity
contemporary society has any tolerance for; encouragement of?
