Everyone for All Our Sake


 We tread along...
 tread along...
 to acquire places we belong.
 We sing I here
 songs of my endurance and Passion for higher places
 and nobilities, dreams magnetized rise to the surface
 where we can perceive and reason
 any presence seemingly so good so high and oh, too good
 for you or me
 but no, you see
 now know it's true
 just have a moment to recognize...
 blinding blissful wishes of the common sort:
 owning stores or saving humanity
 nothing extraordinary but only one's own peculiar
 want...
 Do you?
 Let's see it
 for real
 for once
 a thought, a scream
 welcomed to shatter the peace in a name
 for what's True
 for without you there is only anybody
 else, and "anybody" will never
 do
 ...but then again, as long as somebody does it...
 ...and "somebody" is who's sought...
 that "somebody" is everyone.
