Bridges Of Remembrance

The river we all cross with cautious hope 
remembers secret sorrows of our hearts 
that we never share with penurious words 
because we choose to howl with mountain wolves 
instead of hiding inside walls of stone 
where apples bloom that we can never eat. 

So I fling soundless radiance of my voice 
far out beyond frail bubble atmosphere 
to gleam as silver pearl of my god brain 
that streaks as ghostly beam of aching truth 
encoding dreams of my experience 
in frantic fairy tales through ecstasy. 

From silver abyss of my dreamless brain 
ghost of my will emerges on broad wings 
of urgent gossamer unwoven from dead stars 
that leaves me standing mute on river shore 
when I forget that terrifying scene 
of broken bodies lunging at iced air. 

Deep beneath endless layers of blank words 
soft whispers forged by holy tongues of fire 
describe how ocean waves program my brain 
with swirling thoughts of visionary fate 
which urges me to rise with intense will 
from mute paralysis of honest fear. 

Erased by sudden lighting flash of truth 
that luminates the timeless world of change, 
I sink into bright abyss of my heart 
where flame of cosmic atoms pulsing deep 
proceeds with coils of carbon catalyst 
as agent that provokes evolving souls. 

Fierce wind cracks silver mirror of the sky, 
stunned by aggressive voices of our hearts 
with calm consideration we exchange 
for burning stones extending thoughtless grace 
that transforms how we see the universe 
through realignment of electric faith. 

Deliberate laughter fraught with bitter angst 
reveals with sudden strike of fantasy 
truth vandalized by tangled roots of trees 
when threading secret codes in skeletons 
that dance with lightning flash of potency 
contained in framework of the holy book. 

Therefore we congregate with honest hearts 
to build bridges of remembrance from despair 
connecting distant lands of rigid rites 
with common elements all humans share 
that prove we all are equal on this Earth, 
born on the level playing field of respect.
