A fate blackened by Mud

Eyes sorrowed and saddened

The weight of his life in his hands

His fingers curled around grey stone


Yellow Superior

That wish of which could see

Ember-Amber eyes, seeing so

To whence he saw, everlasting


Glov-ed hand, placed upon

A tens-ed shoulder, soft.

"You are a bother? Wish you to-"

"You are my father; I wish not"


"Then do somberly — so"

"Will then, you — leave me -lone"

"A boulder in your hands, rath-r than"

"Capsizing my sight— I feel it"


Glov-ed hand, placed upon

Softly a- —head — so

His heart — soul; wherefore, now closed

And pasted his door — tightly shut


Wise — Caribbean eyes

A river flows through them

So too — a river flows through him

A cascade — this boulder's best friend


A be trusting rain falls

And it blurs — a right mind

To forever — star — burn brightly

Yo-ur end — ne-ar — but not here


Glov-ed hands, placed around

His trembling figure — and

He is brought back by the caring

Of yellow, Superior eyes


And his star burns so bright

The stone is merely — a pebble
