A Mind That Can Pierce Clouds

A mind that can pierce clouds
Has been forged from the inside out
A rare wonder
That hits home without blunder
It's got X-ray vision
Kicking in like spontaneous combustion
A mind that connects
Deeper than the intellect
It has found truth out
Searched out the laws of virtue
Death n' decay don't count
This mind paid its due

The flash and outbreak
Of a fiery mind penetrates
The impossible and regulates
The rules of the game
That mind knocks on invisible doors
Strikes up a revolution
And knocks the night
Till it breaks into dawn

A mind that splits light
Into a spectrum of color
And wields each shade like
A tool that stabs the dark
A mind that wakes a spark
From dead cold embers
A mind that numbers each raindrop
Before it impacts the blacktop
A mind set as a flint
That refrains its fiery glint
