The Indian sun scattered like footsteps
leading down the corridor of my lungs
The breathe that I need to take
does not come without its price
A certain degree of reverence is maintained
within the semblance I conjured up
The musical notes engulf the passionate flame
which douses, and so, it wets the core
The mechanism used to control
the vast majority of constant disruptors
The velocity in which I am lifted
and propelled like a falling meteor
A mutual understanding between the Buddha
and the monk who repents-
The convictions for which I stand can be trampled on
by feet lost in the hunt for success
Forever in demand is the peace that eludes,
and the riches that produce this awful excess
Within the arts and words of the centuries,
an equilibrium is deemed a necessity
Many generations before us
saw this civilization grow into its finest delinquency
A contest for longevity
The finalists have a request

Wow, I love the similes, especially in the first stanzas.
Very original - a sun scattering like footsteps.
Kat.
