Beyond Everything
Updated on October 30, 2013
The animated mystery
Inside every sunset
And every crescent moon
An optimistic journey
Though a shadowed silhouette
Covers an empty spoon
In the cradle’s motion
Destiny is determined
For the chosen few
To what devotion
Or earthly friend
Can the poor turn to?
Living below the surface
Of human consciousness
And material worth
With no political office
To end hopelessness
On this mean earth
Nothing but misery
And alienation
Covers their injured minds
Caring is a political primary
With insincere oration
Leading the blind
No law of value
Can nurture a child
Or free it’s mother
No white statue
Of truth defiled
Will care for another
Groomed for a process
And ruthless competition
We assume knowledge gained
But only through applied duress
And forced subordination
Will wealth be obtained
Scorned at birth
Exploited until the end
Discarded under a cross
Venturing forth
With faith to depend
On an ancient promise
Free of tedious duty
To love anew
And to be cared for
The masses of poverty
Who you never knew
Are free of your violent war
