A Forgotten Pearl

Out from wild noises
A silent guess remembers
a forgotten pearl.

I touched his verses
A sadness engraved us both,
underneath those clouds.

I asked her, in pain,
Within a splendid whiteness
"Love Maxim Gorky?"

Songs of Power Wind of Change

Scorpion composed an epic song,
about the changes soon to be.
Thoughts and feelings that were once diverse,
Separations lasting years too long
caused global suffering to prolong.
Dividing friends and family;
Strained relationships were getting worse.
Voices joined together and grew strong.
Demanding an end to what was wrong.
At Gorky Park the world would see.
Differences would soon reverse.
A change of heart embraced the throng.
Would all these values remain lifelong?
Injustice ends jubilantly.
The seeds of tyranny will disperse.
The winds of change become the song.
