The Flower's Resistance Poem by Steve Bergwerff

Void of all feeling
I'm lost in this light
The travels are dreary
My fear is now fright
So desolate is the path
Of progression to the flame
In a life without inspiration
It projects itself lame
I can't break these chains
My energies tamed
Nothing will work
Nothing but pain
Words without substance
More words that are lies
Undoubtedly fostered
By loveless goodbyes
Marching forward through time
Blindly navigating the soul
Stumbling over my feet
Dinging further a hole
Through dark tainted soil
Were nothing will grow
Like a flower through the stone
Resistance is the victor
Aided by the universe
Recognized thy master
Know that you are governed
Like an engine
Or the people
If not by the scourge
Than by the steeple
We'll never be free
Nor sovereign
Or independent
For we will always submit
Even to the universe.
