Dry The Tears of Others

What potential do you see
in the midnight dreams of solitude
where you paint time on canvas eyes
to only watch the moments dry
on your grey beached inlets…. of eternity.

Why count time with shadowed hands
when you can watch the earth sink –
then watch…… the sun-rise.

Close your eyes, witness freedom
sail the earth and disregard the ticking sand
forsake the swatches – painted by the man
so you can feel the hands of others.

Now what potential do you see
in the midnight dreams of solitude
where you paint time on canvas eyes
to dry the tears of others.
