We fight,
With such might,
We lose sight,
Of the light.
Day turns to night,
Drowning in plight,
As hearts fill with spite.
Anger to ignite,
Flames to new height.
The fire burns bright.
All this despite,
Trying to do right....

So give up this fight.
Use knowledge not might.
Give blind back their sight.
Share all inner light,
To take back the night.
Humble in plight,
In spite of one's spite.
Peace will ignite.
Raise all to new height.
Thoughtful minds will be bright.
All this despite,
Admitting we're wrong.

I’d rather sleep when it’s sunny
And wake when it rains
I’d rather trade all my new clothes
For the ones already stained
I’d rather watch people from a distance
Than get in their way
And I’d rather be the one leaving
So all others could stay

Take air from my lungs
And give flight to the birds
Take sight from my eyes
And leave me with words
Take dreams from my heart
Contentment to bleed
But leave all of your nightmares
They are safer with me

Positive light emanates,
Infection passes through its hosts.
Shattering fears, eliminating doubt
Buoyant nature, this hope floats.

Take the high road,
Viral hands reach down,
To pull all willing from their darkness;
We will share the crown.

Eternal mother enraptures open eyes,
Singing her benign siren song.
Bearing the fruit of enlightenment,
Transcendence won't take long.

Free ourselves from hate and greed,
Striving for the whole.
Together as a unit,
Harmony the goal.

Calm connection of wide eyes,
Optional are words in silent poems.
Unification complete now,
No one left alone.

Aggregate into asphalt,
An army of one light.
We march upon our demons,
To take the darkness from night.

I internalize, so not to compromise, the real life situation.

I realize, the real prize, is spiritual education.

Though it is little, I feel I've reached the middle, of the power of my soul.

And the following will stand, I have seen first hand, that I reap what I sow.

That being said, the life that I've led, won't haunt me in the end.

So......

In the end, I will lend, what I can, to the men, that will mend and defend what we've done.

I will stand, by that man, until I cannot stand, the demand, of the land, washed by flood.

We together can weather, this weather together, whether or not we were together, in the birth.

Side step opposition, without proposition, combine our visions, we thirst.

Let this be our trend, to the future we send, our spirit, our faith, and our trust.

I cannot see, any other possibility, our benevolence here is a must.

Searching, scattered.
Broken, shattered.
Floating debris in an angry ocean.

Medicate, obliterate,
Facilitate prideful hate.
Counterfeit reality, fleeting in motion.

Intolerance, slavery,
Damnation of bravery.
Ego-driven exchange, seems to be the notion.

Betray and conspire,
Jump in the fire.
The mask of foster, neglects true emotion.

Complacent, denial,
Appeasing the vile.
Pat on the head: "Good Dog..." Devotion!

Gluttons acquire,
The bigot empire.
An Icarus fate, will be dealt by the sun.

Add and subtract, obscure the equation.
Media diversion = systematic persuasion.

Branded by fear we await "The Explosion".
But looking out and not in, ensures death by implosion.

Pain is not currency.
Do not forget.
Experience does not make you better,
Only accountable for what you beget.

Write of your struggles,
Triumphs and creeds.
But it makes you not better
Than those that can't read.

Perception is everything,
Whether man or a beast.
A sprout within famine
Can become a fine feast.

Inspire me.
Ever changing awareness creeping in.
Change me.
Learn me.
Then forget what you've learned and teach me.
Knowledge becomes stale muscle memory.
Inspire me once again.
Break down the walls of stagnant repetition
and inspire me.
To be better.
To be different.
To remember.
To forget.
Metamorphic in my travels through time.
Inspire me to have compassion.
Inspire me to be accepting.
Please, inspire me.
and i will inspire you.
