Behold this moment of stillness Before your eyes is us The witty, the broken, the loved, the happy, the angry, the starving, the sexually abused, the widows, the wimps, the selfish, the great, and the dull All with a voice All with different dreams and screams released or withheld Apart, alone, dying Together, in company, dying Cycles and roles at their finest Dressed for the occasion of an unexpected death Naked for the occasion of a predictable sunrise Time is impeccably relevant to quenching the thirst of desire Be not only a dreamer, for life, is already a dream Everything you are is now, and now is all you know In a fools ego rest the space to which fears the hollow truth- A voice with no meaning and passion with no action are as useless as a city of fools

City of Fools
Behold this moment of stillness Before your eyes is us The witty, the broken, the loved, the happy, the angry, the starving, the sexually abused, the widows, the wimps, the selfish, the great, and the dull All with a voice All with different dreams and screams released or withheld Apart, alone, dying Together, in company, dying Cycles and roles at their finest Dressed for the occasion of an unexpected death Naked for the occasion of a predictable sunrise Time is impeccably relevant to quenching the thirst of desire Be not only a dreamer, for life, is already a dream Everything you are is now, and now is all you know In a fools ego rest the space to which fears the hollow truth- A voice with no meaning and passion with no action are as useless as a city of fools
