There was a day
when
the paper circulated
in black and white.
Like societies woes
I accepted,
or should I?
So I read,
as the caverns of my own
inequities pleaded
for the Sun to shine.
Within, I was being watched-
they knew me
as they passed by,
offering black ribbons
for a toast to our demise.
I listened as others wanted
to know.
When the Holy plated cavalry
would -

banished.

I lost my cries
to be among the so high.
I know now -it’s me-
ME inside.

If nothing is something
then everything is
our thoughts and feelings
and all that exists.

very nice, yes indeed.

"So what befalls the flawless?
Look what I've built, it shines so beautifully now watch as it destroys me."
