Remove the Pain

Covered in road kill
Winners and losers
Confusion breaks me free

I let the books fall
So it could breathe

Below the surface
I let the words
Expand my mind

I retrieved the page
That allowed peace

Burned, what had already been burned
Remember my name

Full moon whispers light
My song

My song dancing shadows
Forever sings
Forever



                    Sings

Sounds confusing at first but worth spending the time to find the depths you probe. Deep thought Jimbo, to be enjoyed for sure.
