Glow Worm

	Up the snowy spires
	Where the air is thick as glass
	Once a year the cold mist clears
	You can see inside the earth
	High in that crystal palace
	I’ve built a sailing ship
	Mastered wheel of polished brass
	Sails of gold and silk
	I pyte the engine steam
	I set for long citations
	I consulted dusty maps
	Said careful, care the glaciers
	Never in, we’re never in
	Hearing through my scope
	I sail deep into the hollows
	Deep inside the earth
	I travelled a boiling river
	Through streams of mercury
	Under these volcanoes
	And the roots of ancient trees
	Underneath stalactites
	I lit phosphorous lamps
	Sparks snapped into the air
	And coiled up the mist
	I watched enormous birds
	Diving through the slate
	As I stood upon the ground
	In my oil skin cap and cape
	At last, my anchor caught
	And echoed through the stone
	As I climbed and old broke ladder
	Pile through the globe
	And up above I saw it
	A glow worm’s little light
	And I reached out and caught it
	In the center of the night
	Tightly in my fist
	I held that glowing worm
	Deep down in the hollows
	I held the center of the world
