Red War Messenger Transmission Protest Epic
Lost to be found
and found to be lost
but you know where you are
and the confusion of this challenge
of fear and people of revolution
and revelation
of sincere compassion
and double standards
of compassion
leaving the victor lonely
without satisfaction
to surrender
eventually to perpetual
abuse.
Everyone knows the answer to this one
on most days but unaware of their own
amazing unity they might one day
try to destroy
to entertain you and their souls.
If I could give the key away
right now
right here
I would and just have
but the simplicity underlying everything we consider to be complex
the fate of procreation
and its controversial
previously unforeseen
loving population control
foreshadowed by previous honored silences
and haunted by open seas and skies
The triangle
you do not see
holds much sovereign sanctuary
that all sides within converse
and all sides without protect
