Stream

Gaze upon the stream The current of a juggernaut should avoid For its treacherous waters bring danger to the weary traveler destined to embark into the void Submerged I shall become Gasping for air, clawing the bank torrent’s fiery acceleration does smother Hope curls into the the air, departing the survivor manqué Perpetual motion, perpetual misery Sickening and revolting it is when viewed unclad There is no true solace but death Yet we allow the voice to whisper, we must be mad, But melt it away into the stream Faceless nameless, strip away my identity With time all meaning shall sublime Surrender to the flow of astounding absurdity The infinitesimal droplet is member of the infinite drink Closer and closer approaches the lustrous moonbeam I scream for an absent savior For I drown in the stream
