Not speaking the full truth

Not speaking the full truth

In order to protect

Sensing a battlecry

Far too tired to protect

Thowing others off trail

Crumbs are flung left and right

Walking deeper in darkness

Hunched and hiding my light

Finding some perspective

Finding some perspective

When logic makes no sense

And understanding fails

Still postured on a fence

Rocks resting on mountains

Clouds always passing by

Earth present as ever

And yet, so too, the sky

Interpretations rise

Interpretations rise

Conspiracies divide

Facts blatantly ignored

And enemies deride

Narcissists not budging

Fight is greater than right

And the facts are weaker

'Til the truth comes to light

Too tired for intellect

Too tired for intellect

So much randomness here

Nature and falling trees

Leaves us guessing with fear

Discovery leads to

Open pasture and skies

Until the woods creep in

Old trees and fledglings rise

All rescue or repair

All rescue or repair

The two of us full force

You with your tools at work

Me getting things on course

Celebrating results

Seeing similar ends

The hammer and lifeboat

Are intricately friends

Snow looking like ground clouds

Snow looking like ground clouds

The sky an empty sea

Sun rising on a slant

Long shadows twice or three

Cargo thrown overboard

Prior to departure

Aiming for the future

Like a pulled bow archer

Go to sleep planet Earth

Go to sleep planet Earth

Communication not

Allowing us to pine

Nothing finding forgot

News used to be daily

Not instantly all day

And if they could, they would

Transmit it on sun ray
