For Battle

u
occur but once
and having occurred
fall into dust
and occur not again
                                        we 
                                        exist in soul
                                        but speak only
                                        of time and space
                                        and the words fly off
                                        to nowhere
look 
as us now
the clock races on
time prepares itself for battle
pages turn
heads are bowed.

Heads are bowed, knees will bend. Sounds like you've described the holy war which awaits Earth.

Sooner or later.

This was a powerful statement. The illustration (which marries well w/ your words) makes it even more so.


One.
