Ethereal Tears
Some crazy light preponderance
assumed to outweigh evidence
and only based on circumstance
gives way to a great expense
For are we only the summation
of all our combined situations
Or are we rather an exaltation
of the depths of all creation?
Where in the heart of wisdom's bane
can society find the way to refrain
from momentary bouts insane
and grow beyond its childish games?
Shall we who inherited Frost and Poe
read the wall of ignorant rantings
We the sons and daughters of liberty;
reject knowledge for foolish antics?
Gaze not dear spirits far beyond
back to this world you once tread upon
For I fear our greatness is gone
and your ethereal tears would rain on
