An Awakening

January 11, 2015 Kidman J. Williams Poetry 0

Tweet

By: Kidman Williams

 

Tonight is the night of dance.

Tonight is the night of trance.

Tonight we awake and become

Hierophants.

Awaken from that illusion sweets

And see what’s in

Heat.

The Storm clouds roll out of the

East.

Tonight is the night we fly.

Tonight is the night we dine.

Tonight we will feast upon the political

Mind.

Open your innocent eyes mates

And chomp down on their

Hate.

We starve in the dark while the powerful continue to

Eat.

A grand gesture to feed on the scraps.

They give us a few to help the time lapse.

One day we will see the way lit by a single

Lamp.

Rockets red glare,

Bombs burst in the air,

These were warnings to the unjust,

Not just lyrics of honor to

Applaud and corrupt.

Tonight is the night we

Dance.

Tonight is the night of

Trance.

Tonight we will awaken

And become the

Hierophants.
