Shape Shifter

SHAPE SHIFTER ------------------- Whiter than the bright Light at the dawn of the day Like an angel I fly ... High across the skies A giver of life where I can Amidst the dying bands God's healing hand To suture broken lands Nobility fluorishes as I furiously and faithfully fly Throughout terrestrial turf Adhering my hierarchy's call Not long before dusk Sets and soon befalls me Then my deific identity Rises rapid to fall As a flag fully masted Once the day ascends Decorating my alter As its ego impends Reams of robust ravens Hover atop my haven's roof As eery emblems exposing My man in living proof His character concealed Behind his closed corridors Capricious components conflict Like Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde One way one day, then the Succeeding day someone Separate abides Like Paul, wrestling knowing The good I want and aspire to do Yet like Peter live a lie With depthened knowledge of truth Loudly speak godly resistance To demonic temptations Yet quietly play in persistance With their tasteful sensations Real revelations revealed as I trail through the night Crying creeks and confessing Raising rage to the light Clearer, vivid visions unveil What my mirrors masked Revealing the vibrant vase That was shattered like glass The total truth ALAS!!!! Has told its tragic tale Of daytime's white angel Who by night demon fell No longer mimic the virgin Who within was a harlot No longer wear white robes With others raided in scarlet Transformation's tough touching Totality's taken its course Then tapes the truthful shape My soul will seal and endorse ~Poetra Jah~
