 Rainbows in Water

Blind Sight


I am a minstrel
without a tale to tell
I am a sinner
without my seat in Hell

A supporter of rights
without understanding what is wrong
like a thirsty man drowning
sitting in a spring listening to a song

So dance not with the Devil
talk with spirits long past
Sing not of glories
where death has a swaying hand

Wipe the tears of the children
who's minds are never taught
Rise and smile at politicians
whose pockets are causing rot

Open your eyes each day
to see that daylight has begun
Put hostiles behind you
for it can explode like a gun

Long love your enemies
and chastise your friends
Grow with each learning
and the healing will begin.
