Edge

The sun has yet to set

As I sit on the rock of another man’s land

Hidden, all the while knowing we cannot own what is not ours to possess

My prayers reach for the sky

Met with feathered friends and sirens on trucks

Heart pounding

Feeling the urgency of the shift that is turning the universe inside out within me

Silence comes when I am done

And thoughts on what needs to be done

Though it is true

It is not always fun

Fear and emotion leaving my body

Vulnerable, I walk cautiously

All that protects me is sincerity

And oh, it is mighty

The power of divine honesty

Once again on the edge of the edge

  1. Fear no fear when you’ve made of faith; a career…
    (Perhaps I’m crazy but I believe that reaching an edge isn’t anything but showing me the peak I’m standing over)
