Advancements made
Return to grenadine
On a late night
On the ocean wide
Up on the side
We advance we retreat
It comes with the territory
I mean
Advancements made
Return to grenadine
On a late night
On the ocean wide
Up on the side
We advance we retreat
It comes with the territory
I mean
The white caps
Reveal
Rocky roads
Ahead
What’s around the corner
Where the path has lead
Wind at sea
A churning ocean
Caribbean
Motion
I am not certain
Or not clear of mind
To know
When is the right time
To ask
Whether I can continue
On a narrow path
Wander of in embarrassment
All the while
I now refuse
To just think
We think
We are happy
We think
We are free
We think
Of opportunity
We think
Thoughtfully
In truth
Or consequence
Are we perceiving reality
Or just contemplating
Insanity
Are we free
Are we full
Of opportunity
Maybe
At best
Not at all
At worst
Deep blue
And purple
The ocean runs
Smooth
As fertile
Life gives
And ebbs away
The depths of waterways
On the ocean clear
And sky above
A subtle passing of
Both fear and love
Vice united
One country so
Divided
We need a resolution
To bring about restitution
Man and kind
To be both
Is to be full of life
Full of love
Hope and opportunity
There is no broad stroke
That needs to be taken
When the realization
Of what a human is made of
Constructed of
Is more than a social identifier
But rather is full
Of love
Boil it down
To the simple
Undeterred truth
How uncouth
To lie and deceive
Achieve the goals
That were rolled up
Your sleeve
Boiled down
To simple
Reduction
One stolen
To get wheee you are going
Impound personality
Strong and observed
Held me up
With a steel nerve
Hoping up
But mostly let down
Impounded personality
Takes my own desires
Just beyond the ground
Take me in night
Into your bitter cold
Biting hold
In the eve of a light
Find me thirsting for tomorrow
Tonight
Alright
Holding the reigns of time
That tomorrow brings
Flying eyes of the night
All on hand
And ready for tomorrow’s light
