Look Through the Tangles

Look through
The tangled web
Of lies and subterfuge
To find beyond
That word
Which is the truth

Look through
The blackness
That constitutes
Your waking thoughts
To find beyond
That thought
Which is the light

Look through
The debris
That clutters
The path of your present life
To find beyond
That road
Which is the future

Look through
The dank and the sour
The tangled
Interwoven threads of darkness
To find beyond
That beauty
Which is the Mother's gift
