With it all
With it all
Down with it all
The artist's imagination
Is a wrecking ball
How can perfect light
Be pictured to stay
When staying to points
Means to stagnate the day
Away I say, Away
From all of the noise
The thunderstorm and lightning
Are my only poise
At least with destruction
Of towering walls
Can truth be inducted
Into lavishing halls
Rain upon the gutter
Redirecting floods
A value of calm nature
Mixing with mud
Elation to the point of conspiracy
Can constrict those who say
To think such thoughts are crime
To all's utter dismay
If the bounty of infinite love
Means breaking down all joys
Where is the trust you once had
When I made my service yours
Alas Alas if all dreamed this way
Of dreary sweet weather outshining the grey
Of an overcast of drops feeding what may
Perhaps then all would be able to appreciate the play.
