We "embrace" our differences.
Though.... indepth of being
hidden intentions
seem to take us aback.

We fight "the dragons"
wonder through the forests edge
stumble along the way.
Our current flowing as the rivers run.

Indulged in value
doing whats right.
Beneath the timbers
ashes blow, flames ignite.

What is it for?
When striving for perfection
the ideal moment.....
the lost moment
the blister of hand
crack of heart?

To be aware
once more.....
perception of others
was not in the highest of regard
in which you placed it.

Take them down
they lose their spot
pedestals crumble
sweep up their rubble
look around at the aftermath.....

breath once more
