no-one knows

no-one knows

the you

knows

how you tell the sun to shine

and warm rain

to bathe the summer

no-one knows

your eyes

when

the snow falls

and the child

smiles the cold away

no-one knows

your dreams

songs

of magic and tranquillity

when angels listen

and I wonder

no-one knows

eulogy for the past

the souls of freedom
are in temporary guise
seen through a window of opaque rhetoric
as though miming
a sad eulogy
for the past


but playing like the dead
is no solution
rather, a distraction


so up you cowards
in awe of illumination
take the helm
course the journey
from perplexity to enlightenment
save the route
protect the words
for they are
the mere
saviour
all we have
