Time (Kyrielle Sonnet)

Laying bound in Endless gold
Tales of fortune and glory told
Not our time to pleasure sate
While others live, we sit and wait

With patience that all the world can see,
Our time, Our hearts are not yet free Not yet early, but much too late
While others live, we sit and wait

Across the water, across the land Someday soon we'll make us stand
Until that time we rail at fate
While others lives, we sit and wait

Laying bound in endless gold
While others live, we sit and wait

Power

Power

Keep calm and steady heads

Lest madness grow in our veins

For the world is free of reason

It infects the very soul

A swelling resonance erupts

It pounds and drums in time

Encroaching on everything

Our reason will set all free

They come now to topple us

With raised and steady arms

As we fall, together

Reason has swept the land

A Little Thing

So if you’re here tomorrow

Will I be here waiting?

Can we play connect the dots?

What if we match?

Too many times I’ve been left

With an empty bottle and a empty heart

Your time has almost come

So have you

Have you anything to wear to church in the morning?

The priest will be surprised at your appearance

Are we really arguing over inches here?

A little bit too far to the left

And it will all be over

You know where to find me

When you are ready

The papers will be pleased

They will have something to go on

Leads are ever so important

It is better than arguing

The land has been settled

Let’s strike while the time is right

Details can be settled later

Time to straighten up and fly right

We can fly together into the sun

So long a time and so many words

To say a little thing
