P-----Today and Today Only

Today the lonesome rise from the depths of the shadows to see a man
who knows nothing and gobbles all knowledge he can find. Today I will
swing to the sound of the sea and arise from your ash so carelessly
strewn to the ground. Then I will find your eyes and say to them "I
never knew!!". And you will impale upon me a sense of justice done, and
I will quietly back away from your back and take to my feet to see
where they will go, and how they will show me where they will go.
Today I find a grey soul hidden in my bushes on the west side of the
world, with sad tears running down a sad face that looked as if sadness
was native. And I cry to this soul, "Take my hand you filthy bastard!
Take my hand and lead me to her!" But it sheds no more tears in front
of me and quickly replies, "You are ignorant and show no mercy!" I
laugh at this for it is true and drop to my knees to cry again before
the sun goes down.
Today the sound of purity runneth over, and your great divide becomes
a great thin line and you stand at this line and point at me with your
finger, just a bone, your smile just a smirk, and your dream just a
joke. So I take the mirrors you stand upon and break them on your
rocks, then take the broken shards and cut the sky in two.
Today a death is near me as I run to the corner and jump on a blade of
grass that had just begun to grow. And death's honesty tells me to
watch before I leap.
