"From the weary brow of a hill / I watched our reality burn / The question: will we ever learn? / The answer: no we never will"


Poem Artwork

Transcendental Sonnet #1366:
Cold Crimson Dawn

From the weary brow of a hill
I watched our reality burn
The question: will we ever learn?
The answer: no we never will

With all consumed the valley gone
I dreaded that cold crimson dawn
Which spoke the sky had turned to blood

I knew there was yet more to see
After the fire then came the flood
The remnants came down with the mud
In slow-motion catastrophe

Today the rains have gone away
The fires out as hope battles doubt
Today on this first day of May

+Steven Curtis Lance
