On The Way

Comets come crashing down
From the lunar lacuna where the sun burnt out
A flicker and a singe
Before tidal waves wash away the coastal fringe
Tectonic quakes
Cities crumble in avenues of plagues

Find me on the way
Meandering in flames
Gotten off the trace
Toppled the gates
Narrow and straight
Time killed is all a waste
I could never be one to wait
Find me on the way

We’ve seen it in dreams
A starving snake making ways around the reeds
A slither and a strike
We’re enemies if we aren’t on its side
We eat our on legs
Renewal awaits balanced on the sickle’s edge

Find me on the way
Meandering in flames
Gotten off the trace
Toppled the gates
Narrow and straight
Time killed is all a waste
I could never be one to wait
Find me on the way

Some universal truth
We held in ourselves but lost it all by youth
Our perception blinds
Keeps us grounded but shackled in our binds
Love and death drive
We hold our breath and cut to feel more alive

Find me on the way
Meandering in flames
Gotten off the trace
Toppled the gates
Narrow and straight
Time killed is all a waste
I could never be one to wait
Find me on the way

Test hypothesis
Trust the experiment
Reach for conclusion
On the winding way within
Then try to destroy it

Find me on the way
Bathing in flames
Engulfing the grace
Opposites collate
We’re in everything
The rivers we wade
Wherever four winds navigate
Find me on the way
