Living in a sea of mystery
From where did I begin
And where does the world end
Deserts to cross
Dust in the face
Sweat on the brow
Sore and aching muscles
Hearts that open and close
Solid clans of religion
That circle to the God head
Eternity of promise and submission
Are we the masses controlled
Or are we so out of control
Clashes of culture
So many other communication break downs
Our body memories
Reach for touch
Of the heart, the hand and the mind
An ocean of darkness
Between the green, blue sea
Sky that reaches to meet it
On a sun filled day
On earth’s paradise
Tomorrow we may know different
But we have hardly evolved
Going in circles
With new age technology toys
Everyone has been imprinted with a yen
To enslave the machine
And set their time free
Transmission of power
Leaves us all in the dust
Without all the adrenaline
Needed by our brave, “survival” ancestors
We may be losing pace
With our needed evolution
Fixated by games and toys
Flash drive messages
Smothered in abbreviations
While our internal life dries up
Like a plum in the sun
Emptying out old suitcases in our mind
That equipped us with the tools
We no longer think we need.
