Dreaming of Home 8/30/02


Exposed to toxic vapors;
harassed by mystic characters,
bouncing checks of different expenditures;
lost amongst thoughts composed of regret, sorrow, and remorse
can't distinguish what is the proper course for life success
tired of the relentless stress.
Would love to take flight but my sight is blinded
by unexpressed pain, locked in the deepest concaves of my mind;
can't seem to get in touch with the person I once was
for nothing in the world.
I'm a lost lamb searching for the pasture, but
without guidance I'm destined for disaster.
Don't want that for my eternal soul.  
I want to reside amongst Kings draped in purple and gold,
hold the imperial seal,
where concealed answers are revealed;
the one place where I can learn how the pyramids were built
conversing with brothers and forefathers that were lynched and murdered;
but I remain stuck
like a dog without a bone
dreaming of a lost place called home.
