A Mere Uneasy Peace

Mystical poem written 11-7-25.

1.
I am the Alien,
And I come,
Into the world,
Uncertain

Uriel the angel,
Sits among us,
“We find a miser”, he says,
“And we cast them out”

Dancing and uncomfortable,
We look away,
We can never find,
The bottom of that well

2.
I look beyond the gate,
At the altar,
Sitting and waiting,
At the foot of the stairs

I sing a tune,
And whistle up the wind,
Wracking my soul,
For a new solution

A bridge across,
The stormy sea,
A narrow path,
From here to there

3.
The Road To Dawn,
A silly name,
For a deadly serious,
Quest for survival

I will,
You all to live,
To be free,
And to thrive

But I fear,
That a mere uneasy peace,
Will not find a way,
Through the Long Night
