hi. im really bored. so heres a poem that i wrote. yay. Defiance
Sitting beneath the old, shady tree,
I let my mind go. Free to soar amidst
The open blue sky, free to fly with the
Black crows, spiraling above.
And if this freeness came with the soft
Rustling of the chartreuse leaves in the
Tree above, the clarity must have come
With the piercing caw of the crow.
The crow shattered my blurred visions
And made my mind feel like a trickling,
Mountain spring, free of the wastes
Of humanity.
But without those such wastes,
The toxins of greed and vanity,
What would we be? You cannot
Have the dark without the light.
Just by accepting does not erase
The attempts of defiance I will
Make. And I will strive for a piece
Of that clarity, that sweet gift of
Clarity, given to me selflessly
By the piercing caw of the crow.
