ALL MY NEWS

1.

I was not meant

to be renown

in the present

market town,

 

but in the future

some may find

what might be used

to change a mind

 

from slaughter

in the name of peace

to honouring

complexities,

 

and thus influence

politics

with deeper balance

deeper checks.

 

And no one has

to be afraid

when on this Path

the deal is made.

 

2.

Look on low

look on high,

see with Love's

inhuman eye

 

not only charge

of opposites

(the broken heart

the healing fix),

but what engenders

every turn -

the leader on her

knees will learn.

 

And he who's sick

with heavy thought

will cherish it

and fold his cot.

 

3.

Do not decode

these cries of mine -

They are the road,

and not the sign.

 

Nor deconstruct

my drugless high -

I'm sober but

I like to fly.

 

Then quickened with

my open talk,

you need not pick

the ancient lock.

 

4.

Mystery now,

and now Revealed

I bend to Thee

my will to yield,

 

and whisper here

my gratitude

for every tear

of restless mood;

Who let me breach

the walls of time

so I could touch

the ones to come

 

with wisdom that

my parents spoke

(established on an

anecdote),

 

and shorthand of

the unborn mind

with Graceful effort

all combined.

 

5.

Undeciphered

let my song

rewire circuits

wired wrong,

 

and with my jingle

in your brain,

allow the Bridge

to arch again.
