At the cusp Of a wave, a change, a fall Into total darkness Here we stand Or rather slide Headfirst into destruction And as we fall Into chaos and dissolution We will at last be saved And in that moment What we took for granted Will be lost Within the total chaos Law and order will be established And with it the end of freedom...

Premium Member On the cusp of becoming
Every so often, my mind wanders back to the summer of my youth, where a specific memory awaits. Having completed my first year at University, I’ve come home. My younger brother John, fifteen, seems all grown up, so different. He’s gotten taller but it’s more than that. I'm surprised when he offers me a tour...

Let me hear you let me see you There is no echo, only existence The brave presentation of everything it is A swirling mystery I cannot grasp Let me hold you. Let me hold you. But it simply is Let me cup the clouds See how you flow around me How you flow around what is put into you I listen to what your dance...

On the Cusp of Change
He teetered on the cusp of change, Wanting to make each moment last ~ This flying of time seemed so strange, He teetered on the cusp of change ~ What would he not do to exchange his life for harmless childhood past! He teetered on the cusp of change, Wanting to make each moment last. ...

On the Cusp
All our lives we’re on the cusp When entering a phase, From infancy to toddlerhood And on, all through our days. We go to school and then we’re on The cusp of a career. We date and fall in love; the cusp Of family life draws near. We reach the cusp of middle age And possibly success, Along with all the highs...

At Cusp of Dawn
Mystical Moon, languidly adrift in pallid glory, is holding night court, clad in gold silk sarong. Ruling her astral kingdom, amusing with a story about a cow and a spoon; singing a lyrical song. "Wondrous Moon," said I, "lamp unto this night, may your lustrous path stay vigilant and not stray." In comply, I saw strung on high, myriads of...

Premium Member On the Cusp of a Dream
I waiver on the cusp of a dream while through a keyhole I envision a gathering of cherubic flowers perfect faces as innocent as creation. Pure, guileless faces of all colors and races earnestly plead with tears in their eyes "save us!” they softly whisper in unison then fading to black, I can hear their sad cries. With a gasp I awaken as...
