we are the key to the universe—seen
through the introvert eyes of exuberant theme
we are the dreams of ten thousand deep sleeps
proud of our heritage
willing and keen
we are serene inspiration for each innovation we place in the public domain
we are the lifeblood of truth
that encouraged to bleed as it lovingly seeps from our veins
we are defiant and brave
staking claim on the redesigned plains of uneven terrain
even when reeling
we bleed just the same
for at least we are feeling—achieving
the fame of the ancients
reclaiming our faces
from sheathing misplacement—erased
from a dangerous game
that we mortals play
with remorseful thoughts slain by the awful betray of the source of our pains as our course is estranged
life is not something we can do over again
but we do possess capacity for change
and it is never actually too late
it is never actually too late

the clearest of rays through the bitterest nights

we are the voiceless
yet some way from pointless
as joyless existence was never our vision
thus we make provisions for faith’s supervision
awaken the imprisoned
and form coalitions
mislead indecision with pinpoint precision
and bleed with belief in unequalled revision
non-lethal emissions of peaceful transmission
souls paroled in pole position
known to go the distance
we are peerless in our brave
we are fearless at the reins
we may well have been sent straight to hell
but somehow made it back again
to prove we do possess a great capacity for change
and it is never actually too late
.

endless adventures

we are fearless at the reins
