Wen sanity weeps
like a slick succession of roaches
slippin thru a rip in humanitys skin,
Great Minds coagulate round the wound of unreason
2 blot the bleeding with Diplomacy
b4 She was
kidnapped & gagged
& could use both hands 2 stem the flow,
b4 politics tied 1 behind her back
& told her 2 row 2 the grassy bank of freedom
knowing her boat wud only go in circles,
barnacles of conflict crusting its hull.
As the ripples distort the mirror
broken refractions of light
fall like pieces of a confused puzzle.
Come the Great Minds 2 still the water
to mend the vista of magic
to exhale words in the order of reparation
to shepherd the chaos to calm
to halt the tumult 4 a moment's respite
barnacles of conflict crusting its hull.
As the ripples distort the mirror
broken refractions of light
fall like pieces of a confused puzzle.
Come the Great Minds 2 still the water
to mend the vista of magic
to exhale words in the order of reparation
to shepherd the chaos to calm
to halt the tumult 4 a moment's respite
to ensure we do not fear the well of silences to come
