In the Shadows

 

That which does not want to be seen

Hides in the shadows

But I can see him

Afraid

 

Monsters are brought before the tribunal

Masked and shackled

Remorse like a cheap suit

Ill fitting and superficial

 

At the galactic core

We hold certain truths to be self regulated

To create a society of equals

Personification of justice in the guise of mistrust

 

That which needs to be unseen

Holds all of the cards

Manipulates complacency

Reminds the futile gestures of equality of their ultimate irrelevance

 

And so this is the soil where we grow our destiny

Seeking sustainability as the unregulated tear at the fabric

Leaving us the tatters of their indifference

Mending what may be a lingering foreboding of an indifferent future

 

Today is the first day of the new year

We stand tall into the winds of charged particles

Taking us to dimensionless space

Where nothing is fixed, nothing set in stone

 

Let us rise and face those in the shadows

And tell them no more

Face the future in glorious embrace

With the earth, sea and sky.
