The Vapid Snake & I

HE is the Algae on the stone

at the bottom of a lake

I am the waterfall and foam

the rapid and it's wake

HE is colorless and blindly

groping for one breath

I am the rain and kindly

cradling all life and Spring

Quenching the thirst of death

HE is as un-renown as any thief

vapid and cowardly hides and keeps

secrets and nothing new

just a creep   (HE is untrue)...

I am love and open sky

Vulnerable as gold to the greed

of lusting eyes

I am heart and shine of light

I am truth and I am right

I have no fear

but will to fly.

HE is shallow and just shadows

kingdom forgotten in the gallows

fracture and old sorrows

no more soul to borrow...

Still I am vision  I am marrow

every peak and flight of sparrow

I am days

of bright tomorrows...

He is a vapid snake

nothing new.

While I am the Love

and the Life

in all of you.

Sunrise

&

Absolute.

how interesting!!!! a bit of the riddle for sure ?? ... there are ecological destroyers and humanity's responsibilities .. there is spiritual battles ... with darkness as our flesh .. but your closing is victorious (me the optimist) i place greater weight on those last verses ... i especially enjoy and harold that third from last ...
"He is a vapid snake
nothing new."
we have no need to give that snake anything more than "..nothing knew" :) love that!
