The Road Never Travelled

We come here with black sackcloth
Amidst the dust and rubble of man
Hessian abrades the soft skin of wooden boards
Steeped in the sweat of a nation
Borderless and penned in
The sea is a fence
More or less ending
Foreseeable hence amicable rust


Muster the trouble of people
Cherish the token of known empathy
Drain the gold from the ocean
And cast back it’s wave
Crashing like raindrops in hell

It's The Only Way To Be Sure!

Let's raise a glass, and more
To toast the classes yearning to be free
The pichforks reflected in my mirrored door
Make these! The torches twitter tossed to me
And I will shake your hand beside a glass sea shore
