Sun and Shadows

It's all about sun and shadows...good times and bad Waking and sleeping...happy and sad Black clouds and rain blue skies and white doves Peace,love and beauty...fear,hate and mistrust It's all about sun and shadows...rolling dice and coin flips Roller coaster rides and terrifying death trips Slide and slip The head and the tail Rising and falling...the sexual spell It's all about sun and shadows...darkness before the dawn Living and dying Prophets and pawns Sacrifice and subtraction...one peice at a time Tiny figments and fragments slowly robbing them blind Kindness of killers and savagery of saints One time passifists put on angry armor and war paint Green lights say go...stop signs and red flags It's all about sun and shadows that make this world just what it is

It is difficult to trust what we see these days and the world has become a harsher place because of it... A very thought provoking and emotive piece, Anthony. Amazing work!

Powerful write, Anthony! I've read this at least three times, now I will send it to myself. Paradoxical perplexities of "sun and shadows that make this world just what it is". Blown away by this write, thank you! Best wishes, Mikki :)
