Stumbled across a poem from 2008

As we all lose ourselves in trying to find ourselves we are like parting waves in an ocean that makes you  washed upon the distant shores of your own beach

Corroded by a thin layer of rust that was brushed off the golden glow of your skin that was tampered by the wind’s delight

Silly sorrows that make my skin turn cold on this warm silky breeze that blows your hair like calligraphy

As a last tribute to the Gods of old that stick there venomous tongues out to the Gods of new

That never saw it coming from the atom bomb to the cloned children of separate DNA strands

Children lost in tears of joy to the beast of this reality that’s become the common characteristic

That life feeds on life in this shadows grace that lurks on the justice of pride

Pilgrimages delight of an honored truce of betrayal that was lost in time and covered over by snickering white men

Candy coated zealots and the multi colored jackets blanketed by these piercing eyes that were drowned in tears

Simple symphony’s of melting pot cultures are cruelly dying in other colors and separated from impartiality

Plagued by greed in foreign disguise as a brutal ceasefire epidemic confronts the tranquility in harmony

Silent whistles blown harder than a raging volcano erupting through an equatorial renaissance

Where fragments of broken dreams are pieced together to form a transverse truth

Where anything can be painted in silver and sold for gold

Laying our arms down in the heat of this resolution stripped of the loyalties protection to be slaughtered by a ravaged love that has blindsided us all

When we can all stand as one we will uncover the truths that lie above our heads and dance in our dreams

When we consciously grasp consciousness to wake from our delusional beings

Freedom will be found

Not through liberty and justice for all

But can only be found through understanding

….

I feel that is just as valid today as it was then, peace and love all, choose peace and love.
