"Teach me your mood, O patient stars! |
|
Who climb each night the ancient sky, |
|
Leaving on space no shade, no scars, |
|
No trace of age, no fear to die." |
|
[- Emerson] |
|
"My allegiance is with the inner self |
|
The dark celestial voice of wisdom |
|
Beyond the dust that is this world." |
|
There is a voice adrift in the starless |
|
and marble black dark space |
|
A voice of wisdom and purity |
|
Beyond the vestiges of sanity |
|
There is a voice deep in the darkest places |
|
calling...haunting me... |
|
Where no light bears a shadow |
|
Where no time escapes unhallowed |
|
I am compelled to dissolve |
|
into the eternal unknown eidolon |
|
A voice that leads to a world beyond |
|
a mere mortal's most profound dreams |
|
Yet I know... |
|
There is no turning back from here |
|
There is no place for the undeserved |
|
Gone are the relics! |
|
"Teach me your ways |
|
Of hatred, unlight, and death |
|
I offer myself to your wisdom |
|
My allegiance is with the elite!" |
|
There is a voice adrift in the darkness |
|
calling...calling me... |
|
A whisper of wisdom and purity |
|
Beyond the vestiges of sanity |
|
There is a voice deep in the starless |
|
and marble black dark space |
|
Where no light draws a shadow |
|
Where no time escapes unhallowed |
|
"An effigy; a gift from another kind" |
|
In the glow of a distant aurora light |
|
No dreams shall take form |
|
Gifts dwell in the depths of |
|
things unspoken |
|
this night... |
