Time Is The Pirate 8/4/15

Time is the pirate,
stealing as the perfect crime,
burying wisdom alive.
Knowledge there of, breathes contempt.
And we, having respect for respect,
do not break picket lines in front of life,
do not cross fire lines,
hiding our souls.
We make language work at our side.
We make believe,
as if there were none.
We make do,
into the dust of the deed of the sun.
You and I wear a causality.
We carry the twinkle of the sky in our mind.
The night tells lies only to those already victims
who abuse their predicament.
Time is the pirate,
stealing, the perfect crime,
burying wisdom alive.
This knowledge breathes contempt.
And we, still, having respect for respect.
