the 26th Hymm: attributed supposedly to Kirk Patrick

next to your confused vision filled with haze
work your way out of your own maze

and see the universe before you, living and now
it is truly not a question of how

it is a dance of things
both ancient and new
of things long gone
and things still to do

like a flower that will wilt in some coming hour and like a streaking light in a meteor shower
there are things that come and go
but like the universe, and time herself
there will be some that will always know

so come down and follow the road,
to the bend where even time has slowed

it is there where you find
it is there you will smile and begin your climb
to the lost archives of your mind
