The World that is becoming Real

The World that is becoming Real

in a world

where we walk in our sleep

we look on with indifference

as the children do weep

promises are made

we intend not to keep

we live in the shallows

while lost in the deep

we profess to seek truth

while embracing the lie

pretending to live

while each day we die

we paint on a smile

while inside we cry

accepting illusions

and never ask why

looking to heavens

for forgiveness of sin

delusions abound

created within

transfigurative salvation

by Genie or Jin

the pathways of losers

dreaming to win

our dance and our laughter

laced with travail

upon stormy seas

less rudder less sail

dis-ease with our brethren

undiagnosed ail

yet i hear souls crying

with silent night wail

but hold to your hope

for the sun soon come

in light of the new day

we realize our sum

the pathway revealed

to whence we are from

and spirits attuned

all minds now aplomb

and joy in the streets

of Gold we will dance

for all “Is” is perfect

‘twas never with chance

each touch of our love

perpetuates advance

i’ll see you at the party

and we’ll sing perchance

in the world that is coming to be
