"A Fire Upon the Deep" - Spoken Word Poem to Show The Limitless Potential of Humans
I'm not a native English speaker but I often use spoken word poetry to remember words.
This one was inspired by a person who showed the highest form of compassion and willingness to help other people.
The poem is called:
I'm experimenting with recording it with my voice but I currently couldn't represent it in English as intense as I wish to.
My recommendation for reading
I highly recommend to read while listening to this song:

A Fire Upon the Deep
As I unfold it to you, imagine this scene
Like it has always beenThere’s a fire upon the deep
So small, fragile and hard to keepBalancing between the light and dark
Sequence of experiences and mental states
Given with the only one arkEntire universe is growing apart
But we’re not
We are humans, and it means a simple thingWe can rebel and fling
Against the nature of this swingBut don’t be fooled by human nature
It’s not always bright and shiny
It has its portion of madness
Which sometimes conduct to badness
And it easily become extremely spinyBut there are people in this world
Who said: “Enough. I would love to evolve.”
And they do, and they act
Which leads them to the point
Where everything is perfectly jointWhat was that?
Ah, yes, of course, I can recall
It’s called a dream and execution
Just two words, nothing special on the first sight
Come closer, and you can see
The leading singers in the opera of solutionWhere this leads us?
I don’t know, I just pick my phone and go far to the network
Searching for people doing the impossible
Being not just champions
But acting like ones
Going berserk when they see that something is possibleHope is like a tree
It has its branches and leaves
Flourishing when people acting boldly
Bringing down systematic errors and believesAnd this tree has spread across the world
Standing between the fire of the soul upon the darkness
And vastness of space beneath itQuickly, in small steps and gradually
People's lives become cheerful, happy and worth
Thanks to those heroes of planet Earth
Contend to the end, friend,
Fire is light to us,
Do not try and pretend,
All that has happened must,
Come close to meet again.
The poem went so well with the music! I read it out loud and I honestly had shivers running down my back. Wish I saw your post sooner.
