Hollow Goodbye

By Sean Mc Shane

the Injustice Circus has come to mind
more colorful and louder than before
another judgment parade bringing me nowhere
while looking forward to so much more

the night sky is a barrier of two-way glass
with shattered visions not yet complete
there's a hole in the eye of my spirit
a portal to a void where we will meet

that responsive chord surges within
familiar - yet with no origin found
this is the pitfall of the waking dream
coming over the chasms of light and sound

knowing I will not fair well
I will only give a hollow goodbye
until the next time we miss
when our sights are set too high

moving with the Time - Space continuum
looking up at the underside
where all this was written
and now I know They lied

    The depths of your pondering mind is astronomical! When I read you, I know I will be brought to the farthest reaches of the universe. I just did a collaboration with a dear friend of mine, concerning, Samsara. "The collective connection is beyond comprehension" - Much enjoyed this one! - blue angel
