I would stand
Before the Roman warrior
And say
I don't know him
...
Now you know
The way
The night is falling
The animals
...
See the sign
Of my own hell
A warning
To tread carefully
...
The burial ground
In the fairest meadow
Turns barren and fallow
NO one seeds the land
...
Be very afraid
rudderless
on the sea of life
and the eye of the storm
...
Why be wed
to people and causes
when they can be
flushed away
...
I didn't know
that bridges burnt
are irrevocable
that forgiveness
...
