DISCLOSURE
The comfort we take in this bleak world of folly
Opaque with anxiety of hope
Born to the wind upon a simple leaf fallen
Subtle the brushstroke on this loose canvas of life
Blinking, the suddenness of sunlight-filled eyes
As you carry your burdens like a badge of honor
Calling to no one present, future, nor past
Tumbling down a chasm of chaos and defeat
Deepest when we’re found is where the true test begins
The very core of but a singular mortal
Poured out for this world in blood and agony
Rejoicing with the discovery of a solitary foothold
To the fool who never resolves to seek
Encumbered, yes, but arise from the unfathomable
A leviathan’s release into a soul lost
Concurrence for the precious now recognized within
The raging battle crests atop and spills over the white-capped tsunami
From whence comes forth the champion
The campaign falters in the memory loss of time and struggle
To breathe in coolness again but a distant dream
Oh nightmare you stake your claim with gripping vengeance
Sallow haze a burden for progress, yet…
Host shine down enlightenment
Asunder this highway to Hades and his fledglings
Alas no other signs of confederates awaiting orders
Selfishness burns the solitary path forward
Hither is strength to overcome
Scale the sheer cliffs of this netherworld that surrounds
Be brave and take true aim and achieve or be forever lost
Rediscover the promise
Your kin wait
Lingering brings nothing but regret and wretched indulgence
The taste of spring, while a memory, is still sweet
Recollect and move the vessel given you
Disclose and honor your mother and father
Disclose and honor your sister and brother
Disclose and honor your wife and your children
Disclose, arise, and be free
