The Dance

The Web of Life gleaming bright
Displays the desperate beauty of the deep,
Shaking the darkness to its core,
Assailing the vestiges of fear and love,
While Joy howls in its delight.

Many walk the path of fate and fear,
Seldom reaching for the unseen light
That shines in the empty, unchristened void.

I can no longer bear the pain
Of my majestic reckonings,
The madness of beliefs
That were never true.

I must abandon these.

Answering the call to dance,
The cadence of terrifying joy
Annihilates all the pain and need
I have ever known.
My soul laid bare, utterly undone,
Trembling I behold
The fierce passion of the Void,
Where groaning, beauty changes form.
It too, must dance, to be alive.

Country

When I take a general look at our society it disgusts me. To see what we have become as a country. In my opinion America is supposed to be the best place to live in the world. I am not so sure any more. Our government has failed us. They can't even agree on anything any more. The only thing that matters to them is what letter you have R or D. We were all Americans before we were Republican or Democrat. It is of my opinion if you are on the far right or the far left, you have gone to far. George Washington warned us about parties in 1792. He touched on it in his farewell address " I have already intimated to you the danger of parties in the state, with particular reference to the founding of them on geographical discriminations. Let me now take a more comprehensive view, and warn you in the most solemn manner against the baneful effects of the spirit of party, generally." If he only knew how right he was. As Americans we have a duty to our country to not elect these kinda assholes who only care about their party. Now I am not a Republican or a Democrat. I am an American who cares about my country. Our economy is failing. The value of the dollar is dropping faster then ever before. We need people in our government that are going to work together to fix the problem. Not argue about party lines. That's were we come in to play. We need to elect people who are going to work together in Washington, not fight. It is not my job to tell who to vote for. You can figure that out on your own. All I ask is don't vote for just one party. Use your common sense. Both parties have great people in office, and both also have idiots who don't care for where our country is going, as long as it goes toward their goals. So please go out there and vote for the best American to represent you. If you don't vote you not solving anything, but making it worse.
