Face the Fiction

One can know
from experience
what has been done.
But must all stand
blindly before
what is yet begun?

It's time to face the fiction
admit the predilection
toward sights unseen
of meanings in dreams.
It's time to trace the motion
sow the land of Goshen
with Christmas trees
get down on our knees
for something greater than truth
stronger than pride
more eager than truth
yet so satisfied
this our love
You and I and God above.

Chance encounter
sparks attraction
evokes reaction
eyes thighs
passions entreat
with sugar and heat
we crystallize

It's time to face the fiction...

Oh sad companion
peeling onions
growing older
take my shoulder
and we'll never doubt
what we can't live without
this fleeting lifetime's love.

It's time to face the fiction....

I step outside
of my life
Out of my house
Away from my wife
and I see our child
and he wears a smile
and it amazes and amuses me
to consider that my destiny
may simply be to watch him try
give comfort when he cries
nurturing till he can fly
then stand aside
and wave goodbye.
Goodbye.
