March of The Sky Gods

I’ve grown tired,

but that doesn’t mean I can stop.

It’s an endless

cycle,

circle

that I find

myself in

now.

 

Start at the end,

in the middle,

it didn’t matter.

A minute

longer and I would persuade

myself

it all wasn’t worth it.

 

Comfort

has long been estranged

from any type of progress.

Into the fire

I make my way.

Another day

of metamorphosis.

 

Climb

up into life,

into the night.

Wake when the day

is still in its pupa stage.

 

Rise

up like the Sun,

but shed no light.

Make no noise;

be still like death.

 

Come quickly

and without a ring tone.

Seldom,

if ever

justified.

 

I’m just there.

You’ll never see me

until I’m in your window.

Just looking in;

I can’t stay.

I have to keep moving.

 

Wake

long before dawn,

seeking the way.

Disciple of resurrection.

 

Die,

just to be waves,

just to be light,

just to be energy.

Reborn,

in another place,

in another time,

with another face,

in another mind.

 

There is no escape,

just a new phase

of this endless cycle.

Circle.

Miracle.

On goes the march

of the sky gods.
