Rising Sun

When the morning light
                    won't wake you +
the rising sun is gone
                hidden behind incredible hills +
when the suspicious gongs of misery
             on tapeloops
dart inside your brain
where will you go to express yourself
where your outlet
               to worldweight + shame
this is what we made you for
     although it might not seem exact:
     it is a resolute fact
the determined winds that bore you +
      the spiders in my shoe
    are equals +
    you're the sequel (to suffering)
the climax
    that moment
       when it
                  stops +
       when
            everyone stops
   like two lovers
              on a parkbench
watching pigeons in a row
  these are the seeds
                    that we sow +
   the future is
               what we reap
when we break out
               of heavy sleep +
the shimmering glow
        that we ignored
this time
    is our battlesword
