take up your trained bow
machine gun makes too much noise
for angels to die!

When asked how World War III would be fought, Einstein replied that he didn't know. But he knew how World War IV would be fought: With sticks and stones.

for angels to die
more than just blood must be spilt
unjust souls draw blades
unjust souls draw blades
grinning, they slice your essence
laughing, they toss it
I'm in love with The Vinegar Man and Mr. Tanner, but be careful, it could just as easily be you.

laughing, they toss it
lunge to put it in the net
a round thing this time!

a round thing, this "time"
cyclical but directed
hands steady rolling.

searching for the teredines

glowing hourglass
sifting sand of grains of light
noting the end now

Remember this, my friends: there are no such things as bad plants or bad men. There are only bad cultivators.
noting the end now
not sure about the beginning
we end to begin.

we end to begin
now the self has sifted through
timeless grains of thought
Chapter 7, The Little Prince ~ Antoine de Saint-Exupéry
timeless grains of thought
glittering bright 'neath the moon
hard crusts of knowledge
