The Mage Whispers

The Mage Whispers Do you see past your reality tunnels Your every day to day Safe plays As your Geiger Counters Ticks left to right As it slowly sways Do you see the struggles Of life's many broken runners In dire trouble At home or worldwide Do you see the villains with the dirty bruised knuckles On television preaching or in real time Standing in someone else's home Their back garden Their jungle As the world just watches Engaging in endless bellicose discussions Will you only take note When one of the world's elected great hunters Pushes the red nuclear button So I summon the power of the Four Elemental Gods Earth, Air, Fire, and Water To wake you up Before that Old Fallen Power Grows so much stronger That hope will no longer matter, as it will shatter Stopping one climbing Jacob's Ladder The bridge one seeks at birth Between Heaven and Earth So be it What will be Will be (C) Copyright John Duffy
