horizon drifting eyes
but never taking time
forever giving sighs
bells in distance chime
cloaked in smiles and storm
flowers in the teeth
hard to breathe amid the norm
pulled so deep beneath
realities and paradigms
shift like the nightmare
waking pantomime
elect official's stare
one feels the nation's stilled heart
shadows are a way of life
if not as one, then fall apart
with doubt the world is rife
sky's end draws ever near
not like long before
we bring our demons here
unlock our sacred doors
returning now to sky
misgivings all around
my sun is in your eyes
and morning light resounds
song birds that offer hope
despite the weight of days
as e'er ascend the slope
to reignite our ways...
