THE ORACLE RHYME
THE ORACLE RHYME
ONE BLISSFUL EVENING OF YORE
A YESTERDAY PAST AND GONE
ADREAMSTATEOF FOREVER PROMISE
AROSE IN THE HEAD OF ONE
BLUES OF BLUES OF BLUES WITH GREEN
SOFT AND MUTED AND PLEASING
SPINNING SLOWLY SO AS NOT TO STAY STILL
A SELF CONJURED DANCE OF TEASING
ALWAYS THERE’S COLOR, ALWAYS THERE’S CHANGE
VISUALS WON’T STAY THE SAME
SLEEP THOUGH IT WAS EMOTIONS WERE THERE
TAUNTED AND NOT SO UNTAME
THE FEELING OF BLACKNESS SURROUNDS US
FLOTATION, BACK SOFT, BOUND TO HOME
ROLLING IN PERPETUAL MOTION
EMPTINESS, BUT NOT ALONE
OTHERS ARE THERE, OTHERS ARE HERE
TO FEEL, TASTE, TOUCH, BUT NOT SEE
PRESENCE IS THERE FOR GUIDANCE
BOTH PULLING AND PUSHING AT ME
VENTURING FAR YET STAYING HOME
HEART BEATING FAST AND STRONG
POUNDING WITH INSURGENT RHYTHM
I SENSE THAT SOMETHING IS WRONG
WHOOSH PAST MY HEAD INTO MY SKULL
NO SIGHT OR SOUND TO SUSTAIN
PANTING SHORT BREATHS TO HEART RATE
SOMEONE IS IN MY BRAIN!!!!
TALK TO ME OL’ PLACID WATERS
SPEAK TO ME FORGOTTEN DREAMS
TELL OF THE WHISPERING SUNSHINE
WHERE ALL IS AS IT SEEMS
REMIND ME OF ALL I’VE FORGOTTEN
SAY IT AGAIN ONE MORE TIME
DRIVE IT IN DEEP AND HARD NOW
FOR THIS IS THE ORACLE RHYME
YOU ARE THE ONE OF POWER
GREAT GIFTS ARE YOURS TO USE
MIND THE MIND THAT MINDS YOU
REMEMBER NOT TO ABUSE
CALLING FROM UNKNOWN PLACES
CALLING TO YOU THEY ARE
STILL BURIED DEEP INSIDE YOU
IS THE MAKINGS OF A STAR
THE VESSEL OF THOUGHTS FROM OTHERS
WAS POURED THROUGHOUT YOUR VEINS
THE ARTISTRY OF CREATION
IS SHACKLED BY FEARS OWN REINS
THIS ENEMY IS FORBIDDEN
IS TRAPPED WITHIN YOUR PAST
ENTANGLED WITHIN THE CREVICE
OF THE PAINS DESIGNED TO LAST
TRUST NOT HIS THOUGHTS AND WISHES
ABIDE BY THE WIND OF CHANGE
TRAVEL THE COURSE MOST FEARFUL
BE WEARY OF THE EXCHANGE
THE KEEP OF THAT MOST DREADED
CHANCELLOR TO ENTURNAL HELL
HE PEERS FROM YOUR REFLECTION
BUT WE SHALL TERM HIM SKELL
WORRY IS HIS ALLY
CONSUMPTION IS THEIR TRADE
BOTH PRECIOUS TIME AND HEALTHFUL LIFE
ARE EMPLOYED UNTIL THEY FADE
MUSIC SINGS TO THE ANCIENT
DANCING REVIVES THE FORM
WRITING IS BUT AN OUTLET
VISUALLY POWERS ARE BORN
CALL ON THE PAST WHEN NEEDED
TOUCH UPON ALL THE PAIN
CREATE FROM WHAT YOU’VE BEEN GIVEN
AND YOU’LL NEVER GO THROUGH IT AGAIN
DESTINIES ARE FOR THE MAKING
DREAMS ARE FOR YOU TO USE
YOU’VE BEEN GIVEN ALL THAT YOU NEED
IT’S UP TO YOU TO CHOOSE
DREAD NOT OUR SEEMING ABSENCE
CONQUEST AS YOU MUST DO
ATTAIN YOUR PATH OF GIVING
AND REMEMBER, WE LOVE YOU
GOD’S COURSE FOR YOU IS CHARTED
BUT AID AS YET IS NEIGH
THAT GIFT REMAINS UNGIVEN
AS REWARD AGAINST THE LIE
