These dayes need not be dayes of darkness
dayes that smite asunder
The heads of pale blue Roses
So let us behold Ourselves,
The Other, and the World with new eyes
Let us seed the Estates of Saint Lucia
Let us hit the mark & create the Cosmos anew
Let us behold what is Divine en the World
Let us behold what is Divine en the Other and, most importantly,
Let us behold what is Divine en Ourselves
And when we do . . .
Ev’ry gesture of cruelty
Ev’ry callous shrug & careless word
Ev’ry punch thrown
Ev’ry poison-tipped arrow
Shall fall short at our feet
So, let us love
& love brazenly
Let us sing
& sing fearlessly
Let us be Kings
Let us be Queens
En the Palace of God
Let us be radiant
& shine like glory, shine
Like ev’ry star en the Heav’ns
V.S.
