A Shipwreck of Sorts
I’m walking in
You’re on your way out
Not a minute too early
To catch you in doubt
A shipwreck of sorts
Where the mighty men meet
A soul in flight
Weeds in the wheat
You speak as one
With sudden realization
Of an ominous Choice
To walk without compulsion
“If this is how it is
Then defy you, Star!
Look away from me-
Let my soul depart”
Freedom from slavery
No matter what the outcome
Freedom from need
But your soul will numb
But banish that god
You’ve held in your head
Expel that spirit
On whose lies you have fed
And come join the Lover
In His passionate dance
In His Choice, in His wounds
In His needy romance
