The future does not startle me anymore
The gift of now is my shield
Made of a native rock,

I stand protected.

Loves all the American people
It protects his country from
Danger and a take over
From villains foreign and domestic

the prison that protects
and they encage our feet
yet they have kind soles which
shield us from the painful outside world

and the dime you gave me 
as I asked for the time

to make a pile but not a shield.

Sunrise

I see behind those eyes,
Many a sunrise.

The rise of light across dark fields,
Makes you shield.

Shield these eyes of mine,
But I will be fine.
