In case of an emergency run as far and as fast as you can.
Dont look back or we'll be as salt before we turn our heads.
Cling tightly to the one you're running with.
In case of an emergency...
Don't fall back, keep up with me.
Clear the station on it's situation needs
For causes bleed and mingling feeds
They will want to become us.
And catch the runners as they pass..
Ask for silence and when it does not last
FIND the breaker and sound it loud
that those who betray us will be cast out and thrown down
And as breath takes body in cool morning calm
a moment of coming to clarity balms
what catches poison and blistering song
and taking the tomb tree away from the wronged
So silence leave quickly and comes as before
when peace was our mother and life was at our door
Sheltered and cared for
Nurished and fed
Now emergency takes us on a run with the dead
Choosing our paths leading parasites, behind..
no traces of cancer, no confusion of mind.
With a blur of dysfunction..... and a smile so dear
quiet memory seeps into the spin and makes everything clear.

This is brilliant! It gets better as I keep reading...there's a seductive tone to your rhyme scheme. It evokes vivid memories of 9-11 and the incessant narratives that eventually justified the war.

As I keep reading, the reference to the tree also reminds me of the bombing in Oaklahoma City and the tree that survived. ...I keep thinking of all of those kids in the daycare center.

I'm convinced that a Pulitzer is waiting for you! thumbsup.gif
