Poem14
 
 

In a frenzied meeting of the East and West so said the prophet
Said it would be in proportion of similar thought and power
The crying of two children at war looking only for peace
Trapped in a conflict fuelled by remembrance said the East
Familiarity and Eastern ways bringing contempt from the West
Serpent moving quickly looking for the fields of energy
On its axis the earth shall continue to rotate never really moving
A solar reactor providing energy to the ever slithing serpent
Peace looking for melancholia can’t find the light of the sun
Creativity caught up in the fields of serpent energy lost out
Grandiose lulled by the false spirit no recognition of the asp
Looking for the lost life roaming in a false garden of paradise
Wise king came down from the throne to go forth and listen
Don’t run the gauntlet when in the abyss of the lion’s den said he
Watch over my brothers listen to the anguish of the East and West
Listen carefully to the similar cries of both great nations at war
The two will be united only if  the poison shall become expelled
Come forth my two wounded foals you need the help of others
Without the master’s hand there can only be a nuclear holocaust
Oh yeah my prophets let them know of the imminent disaster
Abide all nations for without it peace shall be shattered again
Tell them of their tortured souls bitten by the snake of despair
Let them know that the little ones don’t need to suffer in the pit
Oh yeah my brothers in this race no one shall sit in judgement
Lead the children of all nations only taking them by the hands
Show them out of the heat zone and let thou of peace prevail
Crippled & bleeding are my loved ones of the meek and innocent
Let the lamb take you to the pastures let him show you the way
Go forth my friends find the lamb and sow the fields in glorious vitality
Let peace and creativity again rule divine said he.
