I am the moon, the great listener
I hear your prayers and reflect them back at you
I am the moon, chasing away the day’s great arrow
Back into the sun, where all life yearns to hold a candle
I am the sun, the universal producer
I react without warning and lift the tides that bind
Us to the moon
I am day, endlessly turning into night
I am night, endless and boundless as the rays of the sun
I am the kiss of morning
Lips of pale glass reflecting
Like the moon, the day in night
The night in day
I am the earth where day and night exist together
Limitless as the sun, bounded only by the false meridians
That shadow all time with the gift of another morning
I am the light of day, the dark of night
The pale morning of an infinite becoming
Blossoming into the shadows of noon
That limp sullenly toward their endless stretching
I am the false wind of time
Careless and unforgiving
Spiralling like the angels of the morning
Who cover themselves against the arrow
And circle under the false meridians
I am light and dark, day and night
I am Earth eternal, the opposition of dueling songs
I am the false light that blinds prophets to their season
I am a residue of time
The angel of the evening
The light of shadows
And the whisper of eyes
