The Bridge To The Highest Hills



the years become minutes the minutes years
thank him for the laughter and tears
only an occasional resting point

flying horses carry me without fear and timidity

a will to equality that itself shall be the creature of equality
it is not spirit but envy they always go to far
so as their tea is being set of the snow

there are people of bad race & lineage
speak in favor of life as they sit in their den
heretic burners with the preachers of equality
more war and inequality amongst them

good and evil rich with poor
