Like Lightning Flashes
Clem Snide
Let's not make this about
The same old, same old, same old
We're all trapped between
Our separate parts
Convinced each breath but stalls
An untimely death
And so expand in painful
Fits and starts
Dare we let go
Of everything we think we know
And just trust that from the ashes
We will emerge like lightning flashes
Let's not bother with the Christmas lights
Keep them twinkling into spring
Coax the hive away with your sweet smoke
And then learn to savor every sting
Dare we let go
Of everything we think we know
And just trust that from the ashes
We will emerge like lightning flashes
