Crucible

by MichaelFirewalker

hunt confusion down
show no mercy
take it into ground

time runs tightly wound
when air walks deadly thin

stop
before you break again

remember
how you must begin

no inclusions
may be seen
within the crux
of crystalline

clarity’s absolute sheen
only thrives on clean

your sword must be
sharp enough
to carve precisely

and there ain’t no playin’
space for insincerity

so own
that freedom’s grace
inside the marrow
of your bones

you need its balanced
coherent verity
to show you
how to rise through
blind fear

knowing Truth
will only go
where Light can glow
crystal clear
