Last
night I went to sleep as a child.
Only to wake up this morning to find I was a man.
In my hands I discovered the tools and the rage of my father,
And in my heart I found the love and fears of our mother.
Confrontation between in the night and day.
The
land of the sea.
The fine, the air the scared and the profound.
The holy and the unholy, the focused and the miss directed.
The bullet and the flesh.
The mind and the spirit and the sound when you hear it.
The presser and the resistor, the brother and the sister.
We
are not walking with the ghosts of the dead.
We are alive with the spirits of our passion.
