Here now this morn

in defending bastions which are but smoke 
we play the game inane of make belief
sacrificial fires continue to stoke
to examine the depths of human grief

presence remains still endlessly waiting
as polarities orbit tranquil heart
compassion quells desires unabating
readying consciousness for a fresh start

limited by space and taunted by time
an illusion which we have so conjured
where freedom lies in creating a rhyme
pulsations of love in heart go unheard 

no narrow agendas are now tabled ~
veil thinned, bilocation is enabled
