Short SightedA Poem by Drowning In RealityShort Sighted I rose the ladder to forever I met the angels Who fought with Jacob They sang of prideful men They sang of angry women They sang of children Taught hate as infants They sang of those Who lost their vision Of their own Divine Through neglect of the soul They sold eternity for possessions They sold eternity for convenience They sold eternity for power Now all they have is possession Conveniently preserved In their fleeting moment of power Tomorrow’s energy Burned away today © 2013 Drowning In Reality |
