Warning

hey you there, don't let fear distract you
my fear is your fear, it's not the daily hunger for the daily bread
it isn't shame, it isn't loneliness, it isn't anger
but the fear to move and move again to leave the dead behind

dancing with the dead is not courage, nor is emptiness
those that feed the sweetness of anger, regret, resentment
serve not their heart but swiftly punish their soul--
let death come one drop at time with every dose of conformation

"let the dead bury their dead"
really means "let the fearful use all their gifts
to build a mausoleum of unfulfilled comfort."

I lost myself in my words— The ones casting my road; I’m too lost in the dreams That weave a labyrinth before me.
