Breather
Between long conflicts and swift bliss,
a flash of insight like a kiss
that sparks an artist to amaze
and seek new beauty through the haze
where clarity and wisdom wait
with peace beyond the fog of hate:
allow no fear to seize control.
Be brave in matter, mind, and soul.
Deflect the dazzling of eyes
and look above the blinding lies.
Accepting truth, proceed. Be free
of influence, conspiracy.
Let go of fury, sorrow, strife.
Inhale the oxygen of life!
