hourglass shape

 
rotate the fallacy their smiles are very odd
given the circumstances
Winter Blues and a black widow spider
the hourglass symbolic of time

a metaphor and a parable
the sands of the sea in Revelations
are the peoples of the earth
fools gold sparkles
but not all people who shine are good

glittery stuff dazzles
dazed and confused they chase it
without memory, it's a test
and when you're ready you'll take it back

the earth and her womb grew these things
you will adorn who you choose
I am needful of food and shelter
perhaps not even this

with trapdoor spiders all around
vipers with cruel tastes
insidious nature who shall I run too

Father, you have been with me since I was small
I'm not sure the reason
no one else could I connect with
this was fine when I was little
but you want me to interact with the people

I get too close and they know I am different
gentle acclamation they find a way to cut me
sometimes I wonder Father if this is your anger at me
where is wisdom if I lose the memory of past lives
how will I rectify with you
