Insulated from the outside Resilient as compression seeks to envelope Changed beyond recognition Emancipated from retribution As the shallow water Caresses the mention of shame Purifies intention beyond cerebral pretensions Relinquishes those needs to comprehend Shadows of forms reflected in hollow desires Pools the structure of impressions long pressed Deep into the memories of distortion Sought to deliver a peaceful resolution Trust compounded into its original form I build a shelter Out of straw and twigs, and stone Seeking a balance Between strength and weakness At the height of the sun Shelter an oasis Convention becomes routine As the trespass of solitude returns Naturally, if waiting for me. We hold hands in a quiet field Springtime from within The body awakens Building structures of peace Vibrations ricochet down into the valley Rivers sing Villagers turn to the horizon Sensing a feeling deep in their chests Suddenly happy for no apparent reason Daily toil seems to change to joy Looking at their neighbors with sudden compassion The children know, they can feel it. This is the new world order Held fast by the desire to construct A simple house of strength and vulnerability Held together by understanding and compassion Home built from the inside out.
