At The Cusp

At the cusp Of a wave, a change, a fall Into total darkness Here we stand Or rather slide Headfirst into destruction And as we fall Into chaos and dissolution We will at last be saved And in that moment What we took for granted Will be lost Within the total chaos Law and order will be established And with it the end of freedom This is the new world order That awaits when their machinations Come to fruit You, me, us Reduced to so many parts Without regard for who we really are And in the change As the light of dawn unfolds Will we be revealed as spirt or flesh And in the severing Will we sink or fly In terror or relief This is the cusp We find ourselves on As the powers that be extend And as they grow And we still have a choice What will it be (10/25/24)
