Who am I
If none other
Then the amalgamation
Of experiences
So how can I
Contradict
My views
Through the life
I live
I see different
Than what I want to see
And for that I have to agree
With reality
Who am I
If none other
Then the amalgamation
Of experiences
So how can I
Contradict
My views
Through the life
I live
I see different
Than what I want to see
And for that I have to agree
With reality
Blessed are those who
Run into the fears
Of others
To save the hope
That I saw that day
Unknown waters
In the open road
Cast a shadow of doubt
I am told
But to save a life
In the deepest moment of
Need
That was the blessed human
I could see
The night on watch
The eye of the hurricane
Moves over the Florida panhandle
Up to Western Carolina
Can we handle
A night of sleep
In the morning the jet
Engine rocks the shades
As the engine of water
Pours in spades
The eye of Helene upon us
Searing blasts over the land of mud and clay
The rain fell
All over that day
I pray for those
Who’s lives have been destroyed
The feeling of being trapped
In the wake of the waters bleeding edge
I made it out that day
And felt remorse to do more
For the night before
I never ever could have seen
What was torn up
By Helene
I pray
For a daily
Shelter
Away from the light
That is burning the ground
All around
I see a small whimper of
Hope
So I seek this hope
Daily
And reminds me to stay
Planted on the
Ground
She stares
Through the window pain
With pain
Brain
Dead
And waiting for
The rain
To fall
Until the light of day
Is
Gone
Stored with the highest
Value
He sets his eyes
On the fight ahead
To take a moment
Truly
In peace
Of what is about to become
Of me
Built to last
The difficult
Past
Future unknown
But what is sure
Is that survival
Will be made
Through the thinnest
Path
Forward
More confused today
Than yesterday
Wait until the light
Is gone
And the room is dark
Then real confusion
Sets in
The time and place
When all is unknown
And every difficulty
Must be faced
In lower Manhattan
Where the wind blows
Over the concrete of
Filled spaces
The mind can wonder of a world
Far away
But right in the city
Where the light shines
Bright
The vast nature
Of the world
Seems to override
My own ability
To understand
What is happening
Across the land
From ocean to ocean
The wide expanse
Is contracting
Into one confusing
Mess
