Scorpion Sky

Tonight's moon inspired me. (5/19/08)

Being chased by this blaze in my eye

I give in to the scorpion sky.

You see, this moon is stunning

As it plans something cunning.

Set the ground with the perfect light

So that Suffering's bridges ignite.

Scorch the night and rival the sun,

Accepting what was, shall now be undone.

As I pull  control to my hands

It is time I burn your plans.

Toss away the wishes and desires

Rid my life of fools and liars.

Visions clear--my heart opens my mind

Seeing -- it is what it is--leave it behind.

 

 

Author's Note

I gave myself chills.

You see, this moon is stunning
As it plans something cunning.

These lines are particularly meaningful to me and I relate a whole new chapter to it! Thanks for sharing the expression!

Again, great work. The first two lines of this are really spectacular.

Tossing away the wishes and desires
And ridding my life of fools and liars.
Visions clear my heart with an open mind
Seeing -- it is what it is and leave it behind.

I am half asleep, but this verse caught my attention! Forceful enough to embed in my thoughts. Excellent work!

I was driving into work this morning and the moon was settling into it hiding spot as I watched it noticing it was a blood moon. Red as fire and completely full. I know the importance of having the influence of such things sweep over you. So i have a deep appreciate for your words here as I can feel them in a way others may miss but I am glad to have been able to give them a read and feel them to the core of myself.


Great Job!!!!!

One of your best I think. Putting a stinging strike into a situation and burning suffering's bridges, a very cool concept. I too saw the full moon as the storm pulled away last night...but I wrote nothing.
