The Vapid Snake & I
HE is the Algae on the stone
at the bottom of a lake
I am the waterfall and foam
the rapid and it's wake.
HE is colorless and blindly
groping for life & breath...
I am the rain and kindly
cradling all life and Spring,
Quenching the thirst of death.
HE is as un-renown as any thief
vapid and cowardly hides and keeps
secrets and nothing new
HE is untrue, just a creep...
I am love and open sky
Vulnerable as gold to greed & lusting eyes,
I am heart and shine of light
I am truth and I am right
I have no fear
but have the will to fly.
HE is shallow made of shadows,
Our kingdom forgotten in the gallows,
fractured and renews old sorrows
Ever no more a soul to borrow...
Still I am vision I am marrow
every peak and flight of sparrow
I am days
of bright tomorrows...
He's a vapid snake
nothing new.
While I am the Love
and the Life in all of you.
the Sunrise
&
*Absolute.
