A step towards personal freedom Is earned with the stamped decision Decided to undecide any waver strut to sway Off the set course to this heated bliss.

So when like the the fabled owl you see through your gizzard Never relent or pedal...
On This day, several Luna moons afore The curve was set and I stepped to it To thread the living’s land And to earn a spot.

When the morning light delays its appearing And the night seems too long and boring Live a life assured though it tarries Light’s boat will come if even with farries.

Before man tore down to buildFrail and tiny beauties on a dying worldGod make miracles off an empty...

There somebody waits for me as a shadowSomewhere beyond my comprehension,Far from my time that breaks like dollsMemory comes as if from magician’s clothIn illusions only shine upon my thoughts.

If I shed tears stained with my blood Shaking like a blade of grass in sudden stormI will born like sun from the womb of the nightShining bright on shadows from a lamp withinI always learn in sadness of heart a joy hidden.
