LIFE

Spontaneous combustion...a thunderstorm in august...icy drops of ecstasy stinging your face...LIFE...your black and white world dissipates into a kaleidoscope of vivid color slung against the blank, gray canvas of your cerebrum by the ecstatic reverie of a tripping Picasso...LIFE...like bird shit hitting the windshield of your speeding car, like the kitchen wall after a toddlers suppertime tantrum, like the trail of bright red splotches on a Nashville sidewalk before the rain comes to wash away the violent, untold story...This is LIFE...Chaotic symmetry, vicious and sublime. Cycles and seasons, reasons and rhyme. Shapes shifting, faces smeared, what was is gone reality disappeared. Pyramids inverted, circles around squares, walls caving in exposing demons lairs. Captives set free of chains forged by fears, illusions of power melted by tears... of broken, leaking vessels of light... The eastern sky splits and the day destroys the night. He who has ears let him hear, the illusion of darkness will soon disappear. The sun sets in the western sky; before morning comes pharaohs first born will die. A sign from heaven shines from the east, the first shall be last, the greatest the least. Rise up my people the kingdom is here. Lift your eyes to Zion and forsake all your fear. You are the Remnant and your time is now. Confess allegiance to Freedom, to no other king bow.
