Now We Are Borne
Lost am i
pondering over thoughts
lost in lines
faded in legend.
Before like a belive o the jews
so sealed was my faith
accepting all without question
beliving without thinking.
Authors and pens
wrote the tales
mortals and angels
gave it a name.
"the beautiful ones are not yet born"
i dare to doubt
like a religious rebel
rise i in revolt.
I belived once in the written pages
but now i see what lies in our ages
darlings and dears
with perfect smiles,such cherubic
faces.
I behold with every passing day
new brand of mortals striving forth
with each set of crystaline teeths
and when they walk? Ah well
measured feet.
I see our angels in the skin of girls
and ladies
our gods and lords in clothing of
youthful men
i see those witten words fading away
and a new dawn paving its way.
If factually were those words
"the beautiful ones are not yet born"
i defy them,for now we are borne
or still dare i but to ask, what then are
we?
