“THE BEHOLDING”

October 16, 2018 by San Quentin News Contributor

A rune composed by: Terral G. Hightower

Inside your hearts the truth is hidden/

I dare not call them secrets for they are taboo-forbidden/

We share our thoughts but not individual rhythm/the truth shall set you free but our minds remain imprisoned.

Freedom is light and withholding relates to darkness./

toward the tunnel of life the heavy hearted marches/

Alone I am pain-together we are delight/

Togetherness breads fear-oneness heed might/

I/m my left hand is a dream-my right hand holds a wish/

Add knowledge to these tow powers surely I cannot miss/

A miracle is what I want-night after night-day after day/

While I pray for rest and hope great fate/

My misery sustains and the future dissipates/

with a livelihood so torn and destruction so bold /

I release my two palms and combine what they behold/
