I had not thought to think on death
Until the line of light grew thin
Until the narrow, fragile band
Was all there was of what had been
⦿
There was a time I had the Earth
Where ‘now’ embraced potential
Where energy flowed free and fast
My will the blueprint elemental
⦿
Until the bog and fog grew thick
And weeds, untilled, grew mighty
But in what soil did darkness toil
That closed horizon’s bounty?
⦿
To find my gaze was in the dirt
The crop and maze of liars
But shock propels and dark dispels
When boundless sky my eye aspires
