Division
Seen of a place of a time of division.
People see, but can not hear, feel, but not understand.
Of a place, one from another, lower and higher.
Protection from a dark power I have asked,
for I am but one in a place, where I have been born,
and to have known where I am.
Time is a flow of thought, a river of memories,
that help me to move my life forward into life.
As I go, I wonder of those lost in the blackness of evil,
the depths of a tormented being.
How is it, I wonder, does my eyes see,
and my heart understand, yet, I can only but move on?
Where it be I am, I feel of to keep moving, unto different places,
as I can not accept my position given.
For what can I do, but pray for deliverance of the oppression I feel,
though this be read against me.
A law, where my written word conceals my being,
for of a violent portrayer, so understanding of a defined sickness,
and given of a proud translation of condemnation.
My God is why I write.
I have no interest in it after or before that reason.
To inspire, to comfort, remind, and show of a spiritually sourced truth of knowledge.
There are many words in a book, many ideas in the mind of man.
My God, the difference between the light of day and the dark of night.
Of a master and his followers, good and evil, separated from one another.
Of a beingness and a mask, an act from the awkwardness of a reality:
perceived in the sight of the night.

North, South, East and West
The trees are all in a peaceful rest.
We go here, we travel there,
The tree sits still, and fruit
Finding true direction is about managing your way,
in such a way that you still listen to life's guidance.
Correction of all
by Dyllan Bond
I'm not going to follow them
She whispered in the dark
I'm not going to go that way
Right here, she'll leave a mark
She turned
The mechanical mistress
My husband travels around the state.
He goes to work early and comes home late.
He travels wide;
Life is directions that we take
And the selections that we make
From our childhood we select
The choices our parents direct
