The day shall come
where it shall be profitable
to be unprofitable
The day shall come
when the prophets will rise
and the prophets shall say
it shall be profitable
to be unprofitable
and the sun shall rise
and the sun shall rise
casting streams through
unwashed windows
and hang in the dusty air
and curl like smoke
into the sky.
And the sun may set
but the light will never die.
where it shall be profitable
to be unprofitable
The day shall come
when the prophets will rise
and the prophets shall say
it shall be profitable
to be unprofitable
and the sun shall rise
and the sun shall rise
casting streams through
unwashed windows
and hang in the dusty air
and curl like smoke
into the sky.
And the sun may set
but the light will never die.

Extraordinary! I really enjoy your blog entries of late… the poetry is amazing! Inspiring me to “go there” and explore my poetry side. I like the topic of this poem!!! (being an accountant and all!)
One of your beauts, dude.

Thanks guys, I'm happy there are people finding real enjoyment and depth in this stuff. I've been drafting (did 10 pages last night) but they are all by hand. I've taken an oath to not share it with others for now, nor even go back over it and type it up… just gotta keep the pen moving however possible!
How Brilliant! The Shameless UN-plug!
I will go and SPIN no more!
Why not share? I had to hunt to find this? Enjoying the depth in your stuff. Smiles.
