Sparks [Poem collection #3]

Any Longer

I sit alone 

In an iron temple 

Waiting for

The bright one 

To open the door

And release me 

From this terrible place. 

 

But I don't

Want to wait 

Any longer. 

 

I run alone 

In an iron temple 

Looking for an escape 

But I know

I cannot leave here 

Until the time 

Is right. 

 

But I don't 

Want to wait 

Any longer. 

 

I stand alone 

In an iron temple 

Gazing out the

Barred window 

Longing for the day 

I am released 

From this place. 

 

But I don't 

Want to wait 

Any longer.

Flames

The Pharisees at their altars 

Dragged the creeds away 

Where words drip with sinful power 

And sparks never become flames

 

Shatter the old ways 

And fight back the sway

Break in, the ashes gleam 

And it's all ablaze.

Wonderland

I've fell into wonderland 

And I can't find my way out--

The rabbit hole was a trick

A carefully crafted lie. 

 

I wander here alone 

Among the madness--

But I'm mad too

Or I wouldn't have come here. 

 

I've fell into wonderland

A mind game of cards

With the queen of hearts 

A carefully crafted scheme

 

I should have been careful 

What I wished for

Now I'm trapped in this world 

Where nothing makes sense 

 

I've fell into wonderland 

And I want to wake up.
