Angels Of The Light
A mirror's luminous reflected brilliance is just another attempt
To duplicate natural light, which can be dangerously held in contempt
I know, you can't see what I see right now, because it takes serious
thought, and the realization that we don't have answers to all that is mysterious
Most don't care, it doesn't put food on the table, or gas in the car
To me, those things won't be going with me, tonight I'll be going twice as far
Tommorrows the same, even to your last day, those things are not needed
If you take the time to think things through, one finds what must be heeded
On morning when I awoke so early, amid a veloicty and bright blue white light
My eyes sharp, focused, trained, on a trail flowing against the backdrop of night
It was so close, so clear, the smoke proving it all to be real
The timing was perfect, the buildings and cars lit up like the sun, heat you could almost feel
This was an event most will never be provileged to witness
Was I lucky, or could I be fine tuned into an astral kind of fitness?
The answer I hold, so close to the vest, is what I have learned
Pain you have to witness, endure, indulge, cherish, and many times be burned
Sacrifice, another law, seemingly outdated, yet still holding the truth
If you overcome your ignorance, you may find this fountain of youth
Once there was a girl who, decided it was her job to, rule
The problem was that, she after all, happened to be as stubburn as a mule
Trouble was her name, I'm sure you have met her once or twice,
Her mental capability diminished, she hated with the role of the dice
Trying to porve something, anything, who knows or cares right now?
Sending mixed messages, looking more and more like an overfull milk cow
I figured this time, I'd make an exception, although I was almost certain
That she would fail my heart test, and sure, she kept right on flirtin'
Well, hey, this was one lesson I had learned once before by my favorite teacher
The full woman I knew, who happened to have been raised by a Baptist preacher
The hurting I felt that time, good for many things and taught me
Don't expect hearts to change once they are swimming in the vast Dead Sea
The anger they felt, the crying they did, the hole left inside, the hurt they blame
They turn it inward, refusing to accept it had anything to do with their own name
To help me discern, I called upon my spiritual brothers and sisters
Oh, I don't ask for anything to be destroyed by tornadoes and twisters
Well, my patience had begun to run very thin, so the test finally began
Please send me a sign, and perform a universal big loving heart scan
Just something obvious, and not costing more than than the next month's rent
So, after my insights were delivered , and just a snippet of my own heart sent
The next time we were gathered in close proximity
her vessel neatly parked in the same local vicinity
I backed in, and then it came into view
Something had been altered, something that appeared brand new
Her own heart, and intentions had been given away by her rear end's big 'ole dent
Thinking about it, it gave me goose bumps just knowing it was heaven sent
...thanks all you brothers and sisters of the light!
I'll sleep much better tonight !
