Camouflage By: Noah Eaton 5/7/01 Kissed in the sunshine of justice A newborn with a new peace-of-mind Turning your back on self-prejudice Delighted to see your dreams no longer confided Born under a black veil, shy to declare who you are A timid spirit tucked away in fear’s cocoon Pride growing in time, mind vacillating to hark A recipe of a lifelong dream vigorously brewed Self-obeisance the sunder upon destiny’s prison Now a happy stripling tasting justice through metamorphosis A stalwart martyr marching on proudly with reason Hammering a coup de tat on discouragement How many dreams must one transgress Until one finds oneself transgressing beside their dreams? How magical a tree can look bare in one sense Only to see the morning come, glistening with leaves Living within a Molet restaurant patio setting Sitting back within an impressionist’s dream Great a task it is to move on and design your own scene Sabotaging camouflage, revealing the true you to everybody Remove your camouflage, reveal your spirit In the space between, we are fueled with a vital purpose We must be who we wish to be We must be who we want to be |
