Surrender


Though weary eyes may fear to see

That which is masked and hidden from pose

There is much more to be held in dread

The stares back at thee - in reflection.

 

Flight maybe an impulsive reflection

But pause to look back and wonder:

What are those spectre that task so -

In the cold dead of night when the Pleiades flee;

 

Whose grave shall be served in flee;

Will there be critic’s words to be engraved

Upon the headstone with false earnestness;

Or shall there be songs in manner of glee.

 

As fallen leaves rest upon the ground of imperfection

When death waits to take your final breath

Then with a last grasp - reach out to embrace

His barren posture; surrender to the infinite of thee.
