__Tomorrow is always so dark__ —
I don’t have the eyes to see it, but I’ve got
the faith to believe in it. And if dreams never
die… do we still dream after death?
And do you still dream with open eyes —
or do they close by the end of the night?
We dream in colour in a black-and-white
world. But what’s colour worth when we
judge by shade, _by place, by blood_?
Even their own goes against their own
for the turf they hold onto of the authority
they own.
__My thoughts__ —
Black as summer storms over my mind.
Winter is coming, and all we want is to
stay warm by standing with our kind.
And I hear those churchgoers
tell the best lies — where are they going,
if they say they carry His light?
Leading us all into a “tomorrow,” but
is just a place made for the dark…
__Tomorrow is always so dark...__
and somehow, still the thing we
all hope to find… but it’s also a
place we use as a place to hide.

Olga the ostrich and
Cedric the lamb
Naive innocence and
Head in the sand
Evil
Never seen, never heard and never spoken
Interests unquestioned
Illusions unbroken
Tolerate
Dont discriminate "beware theorising"
The warnings were heeded
Resisted surmising
Cedric herded to slaughter
Olga safe in her cage
Medicine in the water
That will mute the outrage
Cedric sees what's ahead now
Olga's cage welded closed
Slave incumbant got here how?
That's just life, I suppose.

Girl in black masquerade gown with books balanced on head
One high-heeled foot on drum
The other
A laceless sneaker
Long-stemmed glass of wine in right hand
Slim bottle of Summum ***** in left
Background dissonance
Vintage grey vehicle with red interior
PYT seated in the back
Tatted up bad boy in front seat
Bearded man in tailored blue suit
Hand draped over driver's seat door
Red carpet rolled out to the entrance of a dive bar
that leads into a mansion
Eyes Wide Shut
