"Siva"
by guest writer K.K. Gunter
I am Siva
Lord of the Dance
And when I put my foot
down, the whole world
will shatter.

Like that glass you placed

in front of your eyes when
you were still young,
The glass you used to cover
your eyes.
That glass that shatters
with the first spoken
truth.
And then you'll see beyond,
to where the world stands,
to what you chose
not to see, to live in pain.
And even if you start
picking up all the shards
of glass and shading your
eyes once again, you can
never forget.
You will never forget, the
life you have neglected,
the life you should be.
But you share your corner
with the lies, tying knots,
hoping no one can
untangle.

But I am Siva
Lord of the Dance
And when I put my foot

down, the world as you
know it will shatter.
And I will break your
knots, break your lies.
So in the end, all you can
see is your own nakedness.
