Screaming with the Tide

By Scott Thomas Outlar

The truth arrives in waves,
and as we flow and flux
with the ever-changing currents
of the Eternal Tao River,
it is our duty
to fulfill our destiny
by catching the high tide of revelation
as it whispers
across the water
with electric shocks
from the screaming sirens
that herald the path
toward the future's shore.
