~PUTTING IT AWAY~
_________________
My anger has been dimininshed
as a fire being banked for the night.
It still crackles lightly under it's
ashen blanket, casting sparks occasionally
towards the watching stars.
The embers wait to be fed by the bruised
emotions that remain at my feet.
For now I am content to let the fire
die, and store my feelings as kindling
to fuel a later blaze.

~WASTED ENERGY~
_______________
You can't cure the blind to
see which cannot be seen.
To make them feel what is
beyond their reverant touch.
Living in their world black and white
with blinders shielding their eyes,
cursing the color's healing light
with every burdensome step.
"Savage" I may be, but faithful
is my heart and imagined I would
have not that our steeple housed
such devil's thoughts!
