Optimistic Disaster – Tanya Lee

As I’m walking along a crooked ridge

Moments tumble and shatter on the ground

Eruption of passion, I feel enriched!

All I see is light, I’m not looking down

Liquid oozes over the horizon

The world is shaped like a silver screen

Shades of wonder reveal what’s surprising

Life gets dark, but I can still see the gleam!

All I see are the objects I can face

I’ve lost everything but I’ve still got hope!

Handling everything with simple grace

My glass eyes become a kaleidoscope

Ink connected to paper, I begin

Art burnt by eruption, I’m jumping in.
