My silence got loud.
A real loud inner voice
clawing at my ignoring.
Slappin’ me around like
nobodies business rattlin’
my cage
“Get Movin’!” GET MOVIN’!”
Not like I never heard that
one before right? NOt like
that’s somethin’ new to me
when silence gets invited
into my cage.
I slip out at night running
like hell through the forests
and skies of my dreamin’.
Movin’ like crazy, movin’
like nobodies business
cage free
All that green and wind
whippin’ around me freely.
All up in the real good in the
not so silent scape of my
night’s run working the day out
of fear’s cage
Movin’ it while you’re awake
and the body’s hungry to get going.
That’s the trick to push out between
the bars of limitation in all that
hurts and the voice says “no way man.”
The clank of the cage door
Damn, if I don’t move it
if I don’t move it
if I don’t move it
pushing through the bars
at night livin’ the dream
all caged up by day
That is no Way to go.
