See the Rainbow? (Image)

by Mr. Darcy   Dec 28, 2008


Smell the uprising spirits, taste their freedom song
Hear the scripture spoken, see the rainbow all along.

Unyielding focus peels away the mental haze
Stripping the unreal to reveal restricted ways
Conformity of society suffocates the so called free
Incarcerating the innocent when they're unable to see.

In the depths lie hidden pools of optimistic hope
Rich blood clinging to threads of humanised rope
Releasing a fresh, rejuvenating winds of change
Lying in wait to spring at the machines throat
Tearing at the circuitry, programmed to rearrange
A race of vivid reality, stifled by dictated votes

Smell the uprising spirits, taste their freedom song
Hear the scripture spoken, see the rainbow all along.

    I loved how each of us saw a different image how the imaginations worked. TJ's was dark and mystical, where yours was beauty and softness.
