peace be with thee

One for the rest Heh heh heh

Rise
Born
To love, or hate
Right or sin
Destroy, create
Not give a hang.
One yin one yang
Balanced to swing
Time's tapping drum
Shrill pipes blown
As we war with ourselves
Over land we can�t own.
Into which we all drop,
Improving the crop.
So seeds we have sown,
Can become what we�ve known.
Until later we�ve grown,
Into something we�re fated to be.
angelic devils and devilish angels
Eternally lonely and free.
Imagine a world full of graveyards
As churches cathedrals inspire us
We can dance twixt the tombs. till eternity comes,
To polish the stones, and admire us.
The peace of mankind. that he just couldn�t find
in the warmth of the earth�s cooling fire,
Is finally there to enjoy and compare,
To lost trees. and dead seas. and green clouds.
We can rock and roll turning
Over in turn,
Silently screaming in shrouds.
While the one and the only ever so lonely
Fool on the hill can attest.
To the time and the cost,
With the rhymes of the lost,
Written in stone for the rest.

This is very fascinating .sad, dark..it flows extremely well..and is a wonderful read..I really enjoyed it.
I really enjoyed the flowbof the whole poem..but i loved these lines:
"Silently screaming in shrouds.
While the one and the only ever so lonely
Fool on the hill can attest.
To the time and the cost,
With the rhymes of the lost,
Written in stone for the rest."
What if we used our own intention to live beyond what everyone else was doing..chose our own reality and made it beautiful..
Great thought provoking write! Thanks for sharing!
