The Sky Isn't Falling

The secret society awaits
as man grinds wheels slowly
moving in different directions
compass winds movement vary
prudence in wake rising
a coarse change in time
peace inevitable
when dominion above man
replaces man's domain

    'when dominion above man

    i like those lines to me it could be taken as God taking over or some other powerful thing that leans more toward the evil side. either way, any way... intense lines

    quite a fine inspirational quick short write, although you describe your spirituality in quite a different wording so that makes it unique and uncliched...well done

    I think I see your secret society as that element of the world soul that knows the important things of this life, while we down below grind away, daily grind and winds of change, etc. The metamorphosis of a butterfly does indeed take a course change in time. Like the pic, too.

    I think I see. It's about our limits or rather our limitless possibilities, whether mystical, Religious or some other alternative state. I think some philosophies call that being, "Fully actualized."

    Hmmm I like the prompt. I don't know if the poem relates to it. Perhaps it needs another look. Good luck to you in the contest.
