Ethereal

By R. Cary

To light, can’t be touched, fragile in creation

Always exposed to crafted obedience moulded

To another’s will; thoughts not our own in beaten

Ego’s lashed to insignificance, the hand is raised

With fists of disdain and fury, how humanity have

Fallen in destructed hatred shattering crystal seen

In a human’s eyes negating creation for corrosive

Mutiny weakness as the cause taking pounds of

Flesh when will will not bend, higher the hand lifts

Brittleness is betrayed as vulnerability weakened

Hairlines of fractures webbed a vase rattles in fear;

The hour has struck, frailty is felt as broken loss in

Humanity of determined hate, the moment inspiring

Embodied resistance will hold knowing in cracking

Fatigue defending screeches of clawed disdain will

Incur a fate against human cohesion held in concert;

Harmonies glair as resin we hold together raising in

The world our own fists then another felt disobedience

As diamonds are pressured made of sand no more,

When cemented fractures urge forward knowledge

Of strength, experience gained using weakness

As perception to expose those who raise their

Hands striking below only the weak of their fellow

End
