Dancing on the Lifeline

Dancing on the lifeline, Flying through the dirt, Mixing into puddles, Resembling the sky... Everything is nothing. Nothing is everything. The truth is but a lie Not looked in the eye. The spoiled goods we buy! Dancing on the lifeline, Spinning dervish, spin. Aquire all the knowledge you seek, Find it is within. Poets are the prophets To the souls of those that read. The magick that is in the verses Always plants a seed To enlightenment, the need. We are all Dancing on the lineline, Connected by the threads, That comprise the ribbons Of the thoughts within our heads. Everything for which we thirst Is already in our chalice. We only need to drink of it, But need to keep the balance... Beware the one called valiant. Never fear that victor, Who has never seen a challange, Who has been given everything On a silver platter. Listen to the hope inside. Follow it, as you lead. As you cast your spells And spin your webs, take heed. Dancing on your lifeline, Holding onto what is true. Only when you care for others, Will you know they care for you.
