Fires within fires in the sky — we fail
We were reaching higher, reaching God — and if we fail?
A muse so hollow, a muse without a muse, without appraisal
What if we do not fail?
A modern man? What is a modern man?
A modern man with modern men? What is a man?
The fuel is fire, the gold is teeth
The mother crying, the brother sees
Our Father, Holy Father
Bring us larks in tongues
And what was lost will never be translated
A modern man? What is a modern man?
A modern man with modern men? What is a man?
The fuel is fire, the gold is teeth
The mother crying, the brother sees
Crippled by the moon, the ever pale
A love so cruel, so frail
What if we fail?
“And what if we never fail? The wolf is loose, the men are lying while their women dance. And the presence is near. It watches us through the woods. Through the vapor that comes out of our mouths in the cold.”
