UNFOLD
mad hippie poet 1974 (new jersey)
Is anyone listening to me when I speak to them of the things that I saw and that now I see I was set free at the gates of hell of heaven and of hell because I refused to back down? They both told me to turn around, saying Son, you are both of the almighty god and the sinful devil
These dreams of mine that I keep every night keep telling stop recycling the same damn lessons because the rivers never roll in the same direction and the days don't last forever, and the nights same get longer. You need to be stronger than the wind and get your slingshot to shoot the stars to get yourself far to where you belong
I was just a child when all this began, not knowing how the story would unfold, not knowing who would be the storyteller, the midnight dweller in the tooth and nail fight, and who would be going home with all the kingdom riches were diamonds and gold but the wisdom over the years was that was told.
