The Wait
I easily could tell a mote from a beam,
but once I looked deep into a human eye
"Just put wings to all your dreams!",
but I've seen this torned other side
They say I must suffer from a strange kind of illness,
but to my one and only question everybody was listless
This wound has no panacea in this world,
but I once received a vision from a blind girl:
Impatience in a hi-tech world of mimes
is the devil's greatest sign of our times
It is just a series of fast and easy lives
The king is lost - the land no more thrives
The great songs since long are gone
though fragments still linger on
So now sometimes I pray and silently sing
on my bare island
And watching for my ship to come in
