All Around are They
The desert remembers our travail
while the sky records our intent
it is the wind we do speak
’til heard upon high
What shall we do with the pride of the young
when they stand without weapon
or shield
defying the arrows flight of their opressor?
Even what man has made
can take a life
yet there is that heart
believing nothing above itself
It is not calculated
that we die by the fire we breath
or that we live by the curses we create
or that we reap ourselves alone
How is it forgotten
that the brother I stood with long ago
I stand with also today?
Were they not brothers?
For there it is in the heart
as though this day is that
and there it is in the mind
as though yesterday will be tomorrow
Dreams are the inactions of our past
and the intent of our subconscious repentence
of our former pride
when we stood without grace
There is a realm within
where all before is set down
for that love called unto us
without denials whisper
As it was with us then
so is it also now and forever
even to where we fear to go
again it returns
Indeed they did fight dragons
as they who found in their eyes
still war that path
at the utter absense of the worlds knowledge
Indeed they did wrestle with demons
except for those who sleep
oblivious they are to their demise
before the throne of kings around them
Indeed they did honor that above
and below
knowing their friend and their foe
were not without the power
May it be remembered
For every ouce of arrogance in ones heart
another does defend against the evil borne there.
For every moment of sleep
another does patrol the darkness aware.
For every valley of spoken lies
another does make mountains from filth.
For everything stolen
another does create.
Around us always are they on the never ending journey
to whom our lives are owed
and to whom we shall know in heaven
as they served us on earth
Theirs is the unquenchable fire
Theirs is the armour they made
We shall not know their sword they forged
by the choice we did not make
To oblivion are our worthless trinkets of vanity
formed with love only for self
formed with the will of greed
formed with the heart of self-righteousness
To greateness are the dragon slayers
who stand before the wind, the desert, the sky
even the demon confronted, for us
as family we do not know
Yet all around are they.
