Soul Flint
Monkey found that sack of cherry bombs
now searches for flint to unleash upon...
Heading for the blackest forest of a rippled past
shaking every leaf - every barking branch
flint-less but undeterred monkey roots the frantic dirt.
Knucklewalking into pond's depths
spitting broken lilies from wettened lips
No flint there either... monkey-fish!
Swimming in clouds, morphing into a murder of crows
talons piercing clouds-unleashing a rain so very cold.
nothing there either mad-monkey-crow...
You see I'm the keeper of the flint
stored in hidden catacombs
I'll strike flint against cherry bomb
when the sundial whispers it's time to blow
