...Of Metal and Mechanics...
Glistening metal
where dirt once lay
the armor shines
in the break of day
Dawn, She rises
out of the Night
and blesses me
with Second Sight...
Tracks of time
lay like rubber strips
of burning road
where my memory rips
from a churning engine
and into the Fire
where the black candle burns
and the flame rises higher...
It reaches up into
the white night sky
where Distance and Dusk
have yet to try
to bring me closer
to You and Her
To help me
understand this blur...
Between The Forest
and The Sea
where the glimmering
Silver pieces
still resemble me
Between the ignition
and the core
are the spliced mechanics
that work no more...
In their wake
I've yet to find
traces of me
I've left behind
She lights the sky
with the great white orb
and the mystery
is solved once more...
