Hymn To Blue Sky
"Hymn to Blue Sky"
All the music
now kept safe
inside
all the poetry
buried dead
in deep trenches
Blue Sky
watched daily
now
while worldly
saviours
tell a bad story
imploring
real needs to
I have a dream
wobbly friends
who smile
and applaud, courageous
standing ovations
to be shelved
time is falling
on lives
bombs
from sky are falling
daily his people die
in large numbers
words
mean nothing
when all the poetry
is buried dead
in deep trenches
all the songs taken
from the broken,
the tearless open eyes
of murdered children
the value of endless
applause and ovations
resounding pale rhetoric
now a calling
is heard bells ringing
boiling deep inside
for something
higher
in the actions
what light
remains in
man
to finally
arrive
on clouds
the courage
to stand
with another
while all the poetry
becomes buried
in deep trenches
the conflicted
begin calling out
to the higher selves
of each other
Blue Sky
watched daily
now
a worldly saviour
watches
time passing
beseeching
true friends to
deliver kind messages,
dreams become
the need
to stand united
like angels
legions in clouds
guarding his sky
to finally
arrive
Blue Sky
watched daily
now
