POEMS AND SHORT STORIES
Writing on the Wall
Some angels don’t fly
Some martyrs don’t die
Some dreamers, they never sleep
Some dry eyes cry;
Some folks are believers in nothing at all
Some blind men see very clearly the writing on the wall.
Sometimes there’s no time to do what we do
And if we’re not careful some lies will come true.
No man is as tall as the buildings he builds
No hole is as deep as a dream unfilled.
The future we’re facing was built yesterday
And in the blink of an eye this will all pass away.
As I sit here and I contemplate the road that leads to Zion's gate...
Some martyrs don’t die

No man is as tall as the buildings he builds
No hole is as deep as a dream unfilled.
The future we’re facing was built yesterday
And in the blink of an eye this will all pass away.
As I sit here and I contemplate the road that leads to Zion's gate...

Sometimes she walks alone it’s so disgracing.
No one calls out the palace guards so she’s protected
Would you believe sometimes she’s even disrespected
Somewhere there’s got to be a Prince
With good morals and with common sense
