fire in my eyes
children burning
mothers without hope
my country crumbling
a scream still echoing
long future slide
war and hate
long road circle refrain
native dance
dry tears reaching
from
deep within the sand
west wind
warm desert breath cry
lay that season
down
where those piano blues
sound
round and round
till
no blood left to seed
fire in my eyes
water across my sight
caught
on a long future slide

It would be nice to be able to change these seasons of strife. Although I could not pin it down, there was a lot conveyed in your phrases.

Omega Factor by John Henning

Take some time to walk outside of your own mind and into another, walk slowly and carefully; the mind that you step on might be your own.
