In the end times, there will be shadows that walk among us whose sight will inspire fear, hopelessness and much darkness by their mere sight. Are you ready to take this test and come out alright? I hope so.
Darkness In Sight by Michael Romani Streaks of black Paints the world dark Together in our loneliness It's in what we lack Too much truth in our snark That passes for your holiness Feeling sorry for our selves Over lunch and a bottle of wine Ignoring truth doesn't make it less so Running down corridors of empty shelves Where wisdom passed as if we were doing fine One more chorus of on with the show Tearing at each other like savages Distracted by our worse fears We find that we have lost all hope Caught up in all these ravages We surrender to our tears Strung out at the end of our rope Breaking news sales the catastrophe Looking at all of this just makes it worse The endgame of our humanity The real facts spilled like a mockery With our best efforts made perverse It's that straight shot in all this banality Lying in bed, too afraid to dream Praying to the sacredness of our forgiver We close our eyes to this true sight Canaries in a coal mine gasp their last scream As we float down this black river Nothing will ever turn this again to right (c) January 6, 2019 Michael Romani All Rights Reserved
