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
