Step into the office of crusaders
Upon the light of day
For the money pushers
Know what they want
Know what they can get
It’s the power that lets
Them choose what wins
And what can lose
The waters of forbidden
Movement
Only allowed for the upper tier
So bring your finest jewelry
To setup a final loan
What they want
Is your soul to own
Take one step
Into the great unknown
Don’t relent
This path has been shown
Away from the lights
And meager attempts
To be anything else
Today
In the present tense
Walk to the forest of
Wide expanse
Breathe deep
Then release
For as the words
Fall from the page
What your hearing
Is the instructions for dissapearing
To fix the problem
Unwired discreet
Imperfection
Loss of connection
Ascension
Into a malleable solution
The fires of past
With the winds of the future
Hold the fire at ease
While the shady solutions
Arrive today
So hold the twig in
A palm so tight
As we wait
For a better time
Keep your thoughts slow
And take your time
When all is falling around
You have to see the light
Of what the world
Can be
And don’t give up
Life can be made
So this how you
Breathe in a burning house
Depths below
Bellow with the sway
Of the riverside
What the river knows
It will never concede
To know or not
So take what the waters shed
The waters of life
Substance
Take it one moment at a time
With the gentle whispers of the
The river
Upon a light foot
Of feather wind
Born on the evening
And raised in the morning sun
The angles tread
In the words with us
In our spirits
Unseen
Protecting the feeble and
Weary
And powering the peaceful
So take heed today
That we go
Where the angels tread
All else has failed
The world is simply
Upside down
Good is bad
Bad is good
All is against all
In a darkness no one
Understood
Would take us back
To a place of proclaimed hate
For those against us
And as the darkness falls all around
In the quiet
In the depths of a plane night
The wind will remember your name
Mirrored in the waters
Of a blithe Lake Michigan
The city reflects
Cool and collected
Over the volumous water
Blue and lurking
Over the shores of the lake
Overseeing lakeshore
In the lights of the city
Speckled in orange hue
We see ourselves living a life
Me
And
You
In the depths of a cold winter
Off the shores of Lake Michigan
The piers of Chicago
Extend
Into the webs of ice
Blistering through the
Cracking of time
On the streets full of vibrant
Life with fires in the souls
Of everyone who knows
The days and nights
Of Chicago life
Beyond the cat tails
And deep in the forest
Thought the tees
And over the marsh
Where the wind flows
Gentle and cool
There is a place
So remote
That the wildflowers
Whisper
Quietly about the coming rains
The expectations of change
The hopes of summer and
The end of fall
I live here in my own spirit
To take the flowers words
In the hearts
Of the ones
Who take the time to
To hear it
