Future Myth

Counting shadows in the sun
There’s enough for everyone
Here amongst us now and then
Telling stories with no end
Many years ago we
Found that light and sound
Were ample food
We forgot about ourselves and
Reconnected me to you
Now we sit and share our songs
Balls of light we pass along
Breathing rhythms through
Our minds
Tiny strands of light that bind
Many years ago we
Found that light and sound
Were ample food
As we sang we grew
Six billion flowers walking
Without roots
The future myth
Stories of the present when
They’re past
The future myth
Writing isn’t reading till it’s done
The future myth
Global views of things we’ve
Missed uh huh
Like finding scissors
Right in front of us
