Whiskey

Gliding around this beautiful sphere

Imagination navigates as my thoughts steer

Embracing the peace I feel all around

I’m suddenly prompted, “You MUST go down!”

I halt my thoughts and do an about face

Receive my assignment then zip through space

Arriving here at a tavern bar

Spirit telling me, “this is where it starts”

Spirit’s showing me a man that’s gone home

A grieving woman sitting here alone

Drinking whiskey to kill the pain inside

Dark souls waiting, hoping to hitch a ride

She stood up fast then passed out on the ground

The dark souls were gathering all around

The fractured light was her soul’s submission

I pushed them aside and then I rushed in

I wrapped her in light, her soul surrendered

I knew my purpose was to defend her

The dark souls retreated, then they soon left

I stayed with her soul while her body slept.
