400 hundred years
Too many tears
After a long pause
finding…
a lost cause
What the opposing forces
of the glockenspiel revealed…
A room behind winding stairs
leading to the doorway to Heaven
our way lost
when our paths crossed
a greater evil than ours… our people
whose sins were greater than
our prayers
we
who were the chosen ones
missed… the delivery date
for the portal
Which reset the password
changed phase
Erased our former
moved our latter
To another place…
Where our place among
the human race
Was elevated
where our stated case…
Was more suitably related to
The position of …our human condition
In this time
space
The location of the portal key
Was forgotten
the fading echoes
of the last call …were sent
reverberating
down the corridors of time
ending abruptly with dying words
our last prayer
closing our escape route to us
…vanished in thin air
coming back …in due time
From the chains
retained in endless wars
a remnant of the spark
which lives on in our hearts
creates a vortex and a requirement for
a selfless act…
knowing there will be no last moments savior
to rescue us before the death blow
separates our body from our souls
an untimely sacrifice…
a rift between a need for
self-neglect
Time when you, too will inherit a world
closing our escape route from us
vanished in thin air
Coming back in due time
From the chains
restraints retained in endless wars
a remnant of the spark
which lives on in our hearts
a shot which missed the mark
creates a vortex
a requirement for a selfless act
knowing there will be
no last moments savior
to rescue us,
before the death blow
starts the countdown
3…2…1…Interphase
Our time has come…
activate the Spirit
the One reason we exist
which separates
the message from the glyph…
beyond the myth
which activate our special gifts…
within one another
separates our bodies from our souls
by an untimely sacrifice…
made long ago
a rift between
a need for self-control and self-neglect
time when you, too will inherit
a world too ill to self-protect
therefore, we must reach forth
and project…
within the mirror
of ourselves
