Searching For Companions

Searching the wood for companions
Sliding through icy canyons
In my dreams
When it seems

That everything is forgotten
Memories are rotting
Where no history has gone before
What else do you have in store
When the politicians appear like deer
Standing in the light down here
Catching a fire no-one already knows
About darkness and it shows
Waking up again
Shouting: Yes, we can!
Has never been a working phrase
If you live in this bright, shadowless space
When you ignore
What else is in store
History repeats —

Again
And again.

  1. As the old Romans stated: there is nothing new under the sun. (Hope all went smoothly and you are fine).

    1. Exactly. And as an ancient historian, I’ve already read it all. Thanks for the other question. Everything went fine. Only recovery will take a few days more.
