When changing the way the world sees
To change the world it sees
So I wonder
Am I sure to reach my goal
At the end of this valley
Eight years ago, right about this time, my life was a process of transformations. Significant ones. Life changers. World changers. Personal, spiritual, career, love: you name it, it was changing. It seemed like Bif Naked had a song for every single transformation, every single condition I was experiencing.
A few grains of sand
Knocked loose by the breeze
Skitter down a miniature ravine
Knocking loose a few more
Along the way
All coming to rest
With so many other grains
Collected in a miniature valley
Slowly filling up
With grains of sand
I may think of friends
Who are far away
But always in my orbit
Always there
Even if not visible
In my daylight skies
And many more
Will come and go
In the lifetime
Left to me
I didn’t notice
Until almost too late
That the times were a-changing
At a very fast rate
Winter gnaws at the bit
Eager, snorting
But the trees
Shed snow faster than leaves
I love a country that is big
That is grand
Where the sky
Makes love to land
