in the center of the pond
the water is calm
crystal like glass
i find gazing onto a reflection
of my self
that my face has transfigured
into a master from the ancient times
looking deeper i see the vision
of things to come
with complete darkness
to follow me into the night
peace is willingly traded for greed
more
death and bloodshed
is just a simple commodity
in this ultimate world of
the divine spirituality
my thoughts now go deep
within my ageless spirit
to try to find the answers
on where we all went wrong
look within your own selves
and pray for the answers
as i sit in the cwenter of the pond

i see what i write and write what i see

I enjoyed this deep place of your thoughts.
I've looked into that pond....found myself pondering what was right, is right...and it looked so beautiful then.

It has that old feel to it...of a place
where most would not want to be....

(check ur spelling of 'center' in the last
line)
