life thoughts

Let my thoughts be found certain
not wandering away among fields
full of desperation where hearts
bleed at protrusive illusions real

I will not wear garments of worry
and display my bare face as grave
reality will be safe if made that way
the tempest brews creating a storm

Let my thoughts be forged in steel
not crumbling like paper memories
that are but fragile life tokens given
when all around rages in a life-force

I will be vigilant this time not distracted
heaping loads of restitution to heaven
realizing life is changing times moments
in every breath in every touch and step

Let me have solid footing in the Gales
where death wears its invisible brand
flowing fast, bending, breathing, moving
in between the betweens of the voids

where death stalks life... silently
