Grindstone

Grindstone

The winter of emotions is the depths of misfit
The Middle-East’s a cauldron constantly under its own threat
Look around and see the deranged soliloquies
Common sense something that blows out to see

Steeped in religion and the yoke of ancient tradition
Mindset of the metaphysically confused dealing with modern ambition
Temperaments of the irrational, it’s seminal
A sense of humor’s viewed as a racket and a feud

What’s this face mask that frowns in subterfuge?
Like the desert sands that blow and swirl like a natural centrifuge
Never be fooled it’s merely inscrutable
My eyes’ tendency to be weak and vulnerable like a Western dirigible

But thru’ my confusion I witness light in the midst
Is a country like Israel a mirage in the desert?
For freedom punches like a battering ram
A slither of Land with tough attitude and an outstretched hand
