Mountaintop – 5th December 1996

From this desolate spot
I spy the fiery spikes of God
With none but the birds for company
I dream of snowmen

And looking down across this kingdom
Owned by none, shared by all
I spot a place for me to sit
Amongst the ruins of reality

Perhaps on the golden shore
Or this lonely cabin
But mostly in my heart
Where I can rest in peace
