FRESH FUTURE
 
Where will we reach
sailing in a coffin

or dreaming to anchor
off the rainbow arch

the gold and pruple ashes
won't revive the phoenixes

lost in myths and stories:
we need to recoup

the elements' balance
and create new suns

and moons that could light the cave
and begin a fresh future
