CLOUD OF SMOKE AND FIRE


[CLOUD OF SMOKE AND FIRE]
THE MUSIC FOR THIS ONE..
http://youtu.be/hOVdjxtnsH8


If an angel materialized from the ether and stood in your presence would you recognize?
Would you look and listen skeptically?
So absorbed in what has been taught to man by man.
Would you turn to escape the deranged words that seemed to fall from the angels lips to your ears.
See the people pass by as you plotted your escape.
Trying to disappear into the crowd and be absorbed.
Ahhh the safety of anonymity... Jonah in the belly of a whale.
If an angel materialized in these days and times would you be ready to gird your loins and sharpen your steel?
Become the warriors and queens that you were meant to be and crush this system...
Trod down its walls...
Become the sonics that tumble bricks and barriers and keep the children locked in.
Block the ascent.
If an angel told you to fight against the oppression and the tyranny would you?
Or would you turn the other cheek and fade into ignominy to be seen no more?
Extinct.
Dust to be trod upon by future generations...
A byline in a book or on an electronic screen.
If an angel materialized and opened his mouth and elicited a scream would you listen?
