THE NEW MESSIAH

I am the light
that breathes
the fire
that grew
from the spark
sired by darkness
grinding
against the night.

I turn choirs
into armies
and drug them
with the petals
of flowers
I planted
on the moon;
I give them weapons
that can penetrate
the dream-filled
bunkers
of childhood.

do not trust
me --
I do not trust
myself.

you cannot stop
me --
I must stop
myself.

Ooh! Deadly, darkish, and seriously intriquing. Fantastic poem here. Definitely enjoyed this piece. Thanks for submitting it.
