There Is Another World

There Is Another World There is a panther in my back pocket that does hides sometimes leaping out to slash and take other's sides When necessary I unleash it's great power and rage woe and tribulation then reigns supreme upon that stage There is a tiger in my heart waiting to be set free turn it loose as my soul eats fruit from life's tree As new love arrives I keep it held in very deep check nevering allowing it's power to cause another wreck There is a kitten in my soul that yearns to truly love pure milk it drinks and sings like a beautiful dove As it plays and gives back far more that ever it takes healing my worries , ever so deeply tragic heart aches There is another world that gives those gifts to me Coxing forth kindness and goodness from my life tree.... Robert J. Lindley, 06-20-2014 I've been told that I am a walking talking contradiction. A man that swings from gentle to bad. Some of that is true but only because of the great many spiritual battles I have surely had.. Today, I've slain the Dragon, so mighty is it's roar in defeat.
