The New Machine

Now there is a strange feeling deep inside
One that's only ever been pondered
But now the desire to engage it
Has become more than just a musing
A feeling known at times before
Returns at a curious time
When suddenly it feels like ice cold water
Running down our spine
Refreshing and shocking
Unique and all too familiar
The loud noises are muffled nearly silent
And the crowd has disbursed save for a few
We see only you
The wind is at our back at present
Gently nudging us along
Into a new direction
With only a minuscule hesitation
We slowly take the steps that way
A slow momentum is gained
The focus becomes intense
The picture now becomes so clear
With each passing moment the vehemence grows
Wonder when push will become shove
The light ahead is nearly blinding
But the warmth is strong and inviting
A confidence seems to be growing
An awareness as yet untapped
Compels us to actions we never thought we'd take
Discard the trash, resurrect the worthy
Step into the new skin embrace a new breath
Unlock the cage door release the hounds
Feel the tempest circumvention
And a new wind fills the being
Saturates the lungs
The fires begin to ignite
Combustion fuels the meditation
And the motion picks up steam
An eternity in the making
Years of torment to finally get it right
And this may be the crowning product
And it will be as you predicted from the start
Those countless days evolving
A concoction of your brilliance
That no one knew but you
Without a clue to anyone
Would this be your masterpiece
Your magnum opus contrived of all the rest
How long will this one remain
Until again inspiration takes you
We suspect this may be your answer
As the elements take their positions
And you prepare with cloaked elation
To finally unveil
The new Machine
