Ultimatum

sun reaches its zenith in the sky and sun glints off the tearing eye. rain pours down from heaven above rain carried on white wings of the dove. white snow falls to the ground. white flakes below and all around. trees are disturbed by whispering gale and trees are cracked by the pounding of hail immaculate face immaculate space. we are full of life we are full of strife. death will slither as a venomous snake but death will wither; pray the soul to take. carried into heaven’s gate and carried by its fate; another escape of time’s planes another light, dark gains. beyond the dark beyond the twittering of the skylark, sun rises sun demises the moon has eyes the moon tells lies don’t believe what the moon says don’t believe-he’ll mess with your head. behold the sun’s light behold the dark’s fright listen to mysterious sounds beyond listen to delirious thoughts far gone. pay your respects to the god who saves; pay your respects to the ghosts beyond their graves. people will lie and people will die; hearts are born and hearts are torn from the chests of all human beings the chests that hold all feelings. sun wakes the lark sun will soon go dark. moon shines bright; moon laughs at our plight- and even as we cry and even as we die we still see the heavens above; but we still don’t see abundance of love sky behind goes bright white; sky filled with birds taking flight; and so too do we so too, we are free
