Shift

The cold, still silence makes a sudden move
I feel a shift --a change in direction
Our world is spinning too fast for this groove
of poverty, hate, fatal infection
Watch for the signs on the side of the few
paths that will carry you to endless faith
Hear how they loudly proclaim to know you
their laws in their books cannot imitate
The love that you hold for the chosen souls
who will kneel and bow before your command
To fight, teach or die - whatever they're told
To preserve the hope, to destroy this land
Something is out there waiting patiently
Cloaked in the scent of a new enemy
