Resistance

Resist.

...what you don't see...
doesn't exist.

Why tout the past?

Don't look back.
Just make a wish.

Resist.

Shoot blind.
You'll never miss.

Insist,
they said,
"Cease and Desist."

Resist,
even if,
the cuffs were around his wrists.

Resist,
what you know is.

#41

What is left to say

when they complain about

shots to their 4O1K,

but they can say,

" 41 shots? O.K."?

Time

A daydream can feel like eternity.

And the night?-

Mere hours.

But it is the time in b’tween

that seams,

the sweetest of sorrows.

Soul Melody

The greatest instrument

is a human voice,

which will rise from the Pitt,

and still rejoice.

But in traveling to the heavens

it may soar,

then sink like gravel,

back to its core.
