I Am Taking Back the Words

His thoughts are racing.
He is a clever man.
Adverse winds a-chasing.
Eagles soaring with command.

Mere trampling of this soil,
a massive anthill built.
We mourn the young man’s untimed? death,
the unseen had him ill.
Distant wheels are screeching - Bang!
Man-made let her down.
I’m taking back the words I said.
I saw it made you frown.

Wisdom?
Sacred blood coursing my veins.

My thoughts;
Eagles soaring with command
Exalting Her
and what by God was made.
