RED ROAR
Upon that high mountain
Roars a lion without teeth
No one dares go near
Lest that finally reach
...the silence
When others are troubled
By circumstances that bind
He roars loudly
Just to blind the path to find
...the silence
He organizes again and again
With the precision of ease
Values and beliefs are tar
That creates the disease
...in the silence
The climb up the jagged rocks
That split helping hands like a knife
Offers ledges to sit and think
About a desirable life
...in the silence
Look over yonder way
There is a majestic lion who stands
Roaring the TRUTH of compassion
Through His children who possess lands
...in the ROAR of the silence
The overcomers stand beside HIM
Dressed in warrior attire
Untouchable by fake vibrations
That reach to assault the holy fire
...in the ROAR of the silence
We will NOT be silent
