fall



down

to
the

floor.
[the ground is a Marshmallow, or is it a Sponge?

coated with the Naked Rainforest, or with Ancient Stones.]


to

a room of doom







and darkness
[the Werewolves are not out,
not even a Crescent can cover the sky
pure black and fear are present
voices and smiles sparkle like the city]
{Memory be Eternal}
{Memory be Eternal}
{May their memory be Eternal}


maybe






light.
[Stained Glass illuminates the alter
with a Red shadow
in Memory of those who are
in the Darkness]
{?????? ? ?????}
{?????? ? ?????}
{?????? ????? ??????}

Light and Darkness flicker in your Mind,

Silent and Peaceful

But
[suddenly,youinhale andtheworldspins,whipping hairtoyourface and yourackyourbrain forathought tokeepyouawake, itisallpassingby tooquickly, notimetothink ortoreact onlyinstincts, justenough foronethought onemoment oneexperience itsgonenow justnothing]

Just

One
Thought.

War and Dying haunt your mind.

to Escape?

but to where?

when?

How?












where did the Sun Go?
when do the Birds Fly?
Why is the Sun Gold?










when will the Birds Sigh
their Songs instead of Singing.
[how can Hockey move a puck dashing on the ice, when politicianS can’t write a resolution to end an international crisis.]

yet, there is Peacefulness
there is Love


[why are




we


consumed with glory


when our Classmates are drowning]

Fall down to the floor.
in a room




of darkness
[the Candle has burnt
the Week has passed]
fall
downtothefloor
in a room

of fear
[the Day has come
the Sinners repent]
{????? ????? ??????, ??? ??? ????, ??????? ?? ??? ?????????}

fall



down

to
the

floor.

in your Room.
with your Fear.

[but all to be Explicated,
how you must Show me
how i feel
i can’t say it Just For Saying
there must be Purpose
and Reason
if you will tell me what is Right]

guided by your Light.
{Lord Jesus Christ, Son of God, have Mercy on me, a Sinner.}

but Which light will it be.
can it Illuminate a room

or a Mountain?

[this is not metaphors or similes,
allusions or onomatopoeias,
this is





you,
this is






me.]

This

you say to yourself

is





…to be revised.
