The Grand Order of It All
Roads to Despair
by Daniel Cox
by Wayne Murray, combat veteran
Things ebb and flow in season or out, is it not for a reason.
Some things are not good, and others elite,
glory be, glory does as glory be...
However some things are just below the limelight most delight
beneath the light lies darkness most foul lurking forever in the shadow
Plotting and scheming its own lies and limits
Here there is no justice only despair and plight for hope lost.
Our hope dwells in the soul of humanity we endure so much
And yet strive with every heart beat we conquest for the best
The Roads to Despair are many
Seek knowing first
Then comes the freedom from the rain
From knowing comes wealth
Billions of brain cells bring the certainty of accomplishment
