Between Dark Past and Future Flight
Between dark past and future flight
Effect and Cause we question quite,
rhyme time between midnight and noon
to read, mark, learn, digest this tune.
Soul travels far, ka’s second sight

outside God’s scheme - ‘on joue le clown’
play insecurity immune
while mocking empty social rite
