A New Perspective
by Ben Easton
Plunging men into darkness, we sweep their canvases clean,
silencing their stories, but inviting their soul-searching truths.
Listening to voices hushed for too long, we create a sacred space,
surrounding men with eyes as mirrors, reflecting hopes and fears.
Stripping away trappings, we remove their obsolete masks,
revealing raw and alien identities: brothers of a kindred spirit.
Guiding men to go deep within, we show them the ancient way,
accessing wildness and mystery, and unearthing boundless courage.
Witnessing heroes on their journeys, we sentimentally recall our own,
claiming power and tasting the truth … of strength and joy and gold.
Modeling action and intention, we walk the talk of the new warrior,
forging missions that heal and transform, and standing as men united.
Brushing bold visions in glorious strokes, we paint our lives anew,
breathing life into expanded hearts, beholding broad horizons.
Affirming our goals in wondrous abundance, we glow with newfound vitality,
co-creating a transformed world, beautiful and inviting for our children.
