Analysis of Eternity's Wings
The last door now open,
freedom’s been found
The air burns electric
the words different sounds
To fly unabated
with heavens consent
En masse celebration,
the god’s do relent
All feeling enraptured
new joy to be shared
The journey, the struggle
—salvation ensnared
(Villanova Pennsylvania: June, 2016)
