Fish Fry

Fish Fry                 10/31/2017

Inside out

Deadside and down

Sunken under

Lost and found. 

Voices are muffled

When filtered through water

Distant as time

Frozen below. 

I see them

And they see me

Years ago

And far away. 

The secrets remain

But closer they come

Revealed by the dots

In the deepest brain. 

We knew it

When we saw it

And there is no going back

The hidden link

Shinning in the dark.  

Like a silver fish

Flopping on the sand

All that we missed

The first time around. 

The connection is made

And then we know

All that we had missed

Half a life

In the dark.

It is then

That we look backwards

And gaze across memories

At last able to grasp

Every single lie. 

Long ago

Primed and loaded

The end game

Is played out

Dark and horrific.

But even now

They tremble in fear

That the hearts of the good

Have begun to stir.

A long time coming

The terrible truth

Deduced through logic

And decades

Of deception. 

Filtered through

Instinctual patience

And long tolerated

Well past due. 

Simmering beneath

The surface

As long as there was doubt

The horrific intentions

Of evil men. 

All masks have fallen

And now we see

The obvious plan

Dead level simple

Straight through the heart.

Their time is coming

And now they know it to

Desperately clinging

To the same old lies.

See them now

Resort to hatred

Exploding into violence

And ridiculous slander. 

Not yet complete

But closer every day

When light overcomes darkness

In a single

Glorious hour.

Come quickly

As quiet as a thief

Lest even the evil

See and escape. 

Twice dead

By truth and action

The hidden revealed

Final and certain.
