Bard's Tongue

Finding himself here again
At the intersection of anticipation
And some numbered street

Walking alone once more
The man whistled a song
This time knowing that in this place
It would echo for eternity

Forever and ever
First sight confirmed from every angle
Wide awake what else would one do

It is all encoded
And now all released in song
The words painting images along the walls
Up and down the stairs

Forever you will have her
If you so desire
In my absence has anything changed

If not, seek me not, I never knew you
Perhaps one will introduce us sometime in some other place

If so, be you friend or foe
And for what reason do you approach
I will hear you out either way, having made it here

I would love to see
The day you truly saw me
And who I represent
Should you have switched sides before now

I would love to see
Your journey from sleep to wake
As you fight unanswered questions
With weapons and questions of our own

I have a type
Of paths and angles
I prefer to traverse
If you're hearing these chirps then you must too

Call them what they are
A mindless call to mindful listeners
To allow whatever time is needed until we meet
Again

The truest whites
The blackest nights
The impossible traps
The irresistable charms
I have seen them all and can weave quite a tale
My fancy piqued by the curious
I have never been able to resist a good puzzle or game

Expect to play open handed
Nothing up your sleeves, if not now then soon
As truth saturates the room

We all ebb and flow
Midnight strikes for everyone
Tell me about this dream you are having

All this conveyed
Across all frequencies
Presently tuned to hear it

I walk in circles
Quite intentionally now
Please dive in anytime you'd like
And follow the sound

"The Bard continued to whistle down the path until he faded from view. All that was left was the sound and us, and now just you."

Step by Step On The Open Ocean

"Gentlemen, prepare Yes, there is danger ahead But we are heroes. Written in our code It is in our DNA We've earned skin and scars These seas of logic Are full of 'paradoxes' We have dynamite. We sail through winter Eyes scanning for a Spring Day On the horizon Omelas be damned. Let waves wash worst days from mind Best are yet to come We seek a shared realm With no more dream(s) to distract Though they might buoy Our blood sweat and tears Will be worth each step taken Our footfalls swear it They say 'life goes on' Perhaps it does on some shore Here, we claim the NOW!"

(W)rest Control

Need I say one word? We've tried [that] one already And yet here we are So in silence sleep May your perfect Dream meet you Across the lim line An echo is heard "I do not exist" replied An echo is heard Ink fresh on the page Contracts diverge and collide With you in my arms Intersection stays Written deeper than our code Indelible Mark This turn naught taken That the first might rest at last Finally at peace When looking to (w)rest Remember the lesson learned Fly, fly back to me Nothing gained or lost Nothing is impossible Nothing out of reach

Verdict

I have held this back for long enough. This wicked generation sickens me. This distasteful generation disgusts me. 1,000 generations promised, nonetheless, and so it will be. Did you know that one can build an image of Jesus so clearly in their mind that they will see an idol in his place and feel certain of their eternal fate? A cloned image, without the power of God. Perhaps considered fine, here on Earth, but what of on Judgement Day? How horrific would it be to find out that you have been lied to? How terrifying will it be to hear "I never knew you" in the silence, while you ask the lawyer by your side to proceed? Jesus is not coming for you. You hung him on the cross, you pierced him and left him there in your heart, never even thinking to repay the forgiveness he would ultimately offer. You blasphemed his name and the Holy Spirit with your contempt, and lied about it, every day, even to yourself. So, intentional contempt is summed, your will removed from the verdict, th...
