Quickly run to beat the day
Haste, the time of imbalance
And reach the home of content
Within the walls inside
Serene the sun it’s crowning blaze
Bathes the hillside hardened stone
From which the plant of life arises
And scrapes for nourishment
So too the traveler’s ride
On the bluish rock in space
Braves the harsh, the heat, the time
To make it through another day
For purpose of the world hides
From the eyes of all who pride their kind
Inside outside upside down
Beyond the horizon can’t be found
To see is to be wary
Under the overhead falseness
Toward the new day, the canopy
Of harboring weight dispels the shoulder’s load
So see and believe with mind on the steer
For thee is the wanting magic tryst
Under whelm at the obviously bright
And be the beauty the hides not completely from your eyes.
