Module
Module
Away, away, far away, one light was flickering
Up to neck river was enough to gulf me in
Mounds of hopes living within
Were transgressing to keep survive
Hope was angular, like modern module to gulp me in
Fleck of inspiration was slithering with breath at straw
I reared faith stood stone must have firm from underneath
One turn of stone could swallow my breath forever
Sending me up heaven or in hell for rest
A tiger was lurching towards the brink of river gazing at me
I was on my own belief tiger would not jump in to bite me
Thanks god it would not swim, I remembered story of childhood
Sky allowed marvelous crimson on dawn in her lawn
Seed of inspiration dropped down being morning dew
In the realm of my belief, wish was an opaque
Someone will come to pick me up from this treacherous die
Days past I was alive, hopes of life remained wide.
