Up And Adam

I'm back and full
my gravitational pull
is as sudden
as a sneeze
i've got the keys
to the universe up my sleeve
grieve when it's time to grieve
but believe
always
till days become their last
and the past is no longer
i'm destined to fly higher
bigger faster
so much stronger
than even
yesterday
my today is absolute
although i fight the let go
i'm at least ten minutes wiser
that much more in the know
right up the street
is the reaper
collecting what i sow
slow about cutting
and gutting that portion
of me that ain't good
stubborn like a hundred year oak
in the woods
but GOD borne i got the goods
to make amends
heal wounds
and resume to exhume
souls supposed
to be meandering about in the dark
