Stepping Stone



Stepping Stone      2/27/2015

The beast is fed
With innocent blood
By those who sleep in safety
Tonight and tomorrow.

They hope and they plan
Trading truth for money
Giving up others
So that they may rise. 

But their peace
Is temporary
And their safety
A joke.

Time changes everything
And with each grain of sand
The beaches form
And spread.

What has betrayal bought?
Nothing but time
As the engines drone on
Consuming us all.  

Evil men make excuses
And lie about the causes
Fueled by insatiable hatred
And a twisted psyche.

Hiding the facts
And assigning the blame
Regardless of how obvious
The brutal truth. 

Horror upon horror comes
But what will it take?
For the greater to rise up
And do what he must. 

Find the strength
And mean it
In defense of all you are
For every bloody inch. 

Know the truth
And do not forget
That he who is in us
Has overcome the world.
