you catch it in your hand and watch it expire,
barbwires in the sand, the blackness of fire,
careful what you put in your head, the mirror said,
it will stay with you forever, even after you're dead,
you'll forget what you need to remember,
but you'll remember what you need to forget-N

what blink of an eye, whose tear, whose stare
what fork on which road is taking you where? -N

you laughed you are so clever
you are a walker on the waves
but your eyes are searching inwards
seeking shadows in light caves
you see queens give birth to lizards
your gods give birth to slaves-N

Was it paradise lost or paradise found  

Did you buy safety with 6 feet of  ground

ashes to ashes, dust to drone  

burning your bridges with hearts of stone
