A Crimson Dream

Sweet prunes and bitter apples

Wind’s shadow and winter’s blossom

Blind as an eagle and as clear as a bat

Close my eyes see a world unimagined


As dark as white, as light as black

Weapons of love, bullets of truth

Politics of innocence, rule of servitude

Close my eyes see a world unimagined


People as students, life as a teacher

Lessons of compassion, cities of duty

Tests of righteousness, globe of unity

Close my eyes see a world unimagined
