Love approach
Charles Fields II 1955 (Fort Bragg, NC)
Swing low Sweet chariot
Coming for to carry me Home
(ancient call to heaven)
Love approach Simplistic empathy fueled
Reentry focused and directed
In healing grace in a prayer song
A life study in restoration
Of those in the greatest need Of a divine seed
Straight from the heart of all creation
A loving dose Of Instantaneous sanity
A particle of blind faith A token of payment
Of those whose Service is true to heart
Those whose valor is assured
In some lost hope Of saving humanity
From a fate Of false pride and indifference
Self-serving destroyers of creativity
Setting the stage reverse engineer The cure d'jour
Those destined to suffer A fate worse than hate
Trapped in endless cycles of pain and death
Shallow lives fed by anti-matter
Suffering the falsehood Of a chosen fate willfully
Lured, by greed A mistaken sense of alter -ego
Embraced by static Mind numbing routines
Coming in endless waves of chaos and waste
A catastrophic cascade Of strong emotion
From overfilled vats of useless waste
With no pain and tears
For the goodness, displaced...
So bring on the soul restorers Spiritual warriors
What is this thing called love
Making the most resolute man and woman
Break down in passionate fear This choosing
One of many Which gives our hearts wings
Of new beginnings, of happy endings
This losing love thing
Taking our former to the latter
To change So swiftly To the very edge its scary
Some random event Tricks our sense of being
Tears apart all sense of order
Rearranges perspectives Changes life direction
Fuses our most discrete perspectives
Releases out past connections
Reroutes priorities Add such rich dynamic fusion
Turning points of contact into new dimensions
Rendering past routines Obsolete
Making of our every living moment
A continuation of A new order of being
With every effort Towards our goal
Our favorite recurrent dream
On our favorite team
Our heroic battle
So much not Like A club
A chain reaction
This thing
called Love
