{OF CLOUD AND STONE}


{OF CLOUD AND STONE}
THE SOUNDTRACK IS ME READING THIS PIECE... MAKE SURE YOU LISTEN....
http://youtu.be/i6DcNqjEWDo

And if I could I would reach into the sky and pull down a piece of a cloud...
Soften these harsh realities for you... These hard truths which so many lie upon while trying to find rest.
The pattering rain would be the shower and the driving storm would be the massaging... the wind the water jets.
Trying to meld the ancient and the modern...
Trying to show you that its all the same.
Yesterdays, todays and tomorrows that never seem to come as the world turns.
If I could I would confront governments and secret societies and talk to them of the will of Allah.
I know its been tried but I just gotta... I just gotta.
Tell them to free the masses so that we can travel to distant suns where our relatives await us...
We been down so long... Been gone so long... Been done wrong.
Lies have become the way we live... War and devastation... Pestilence and diseased minds.
No one cries when the baby is born but it ought to be that way... Baby got so much to face.
A participant in the game of life... Pawn, bishop, fallen kings and queens... got to get some a dat back.
If I could I would work in a lab to create an Injection  that would inoculate you against being used and abused.
Introduce it intramuscular into your physiology... Let it make its way to your psychology.
Get you to see that this place you inhabit... These things... They are not reality.
That we are not these savage beings that are the result of religion and caste system...
Of being beaten into an altered state of thinking that its normal to charge for natural things...
That we own the land, the water, the air that we breathe.
They were here before we came and will be here long after we are gone.
Yes... If I could I would reach into the sky and pull down a piece of a cloud but I'm here on earth and all I got is this stone.
