Once upon a twilight past A man was born and led to fast To bring an act of God to pass Once upon a twilight past.
He saw but scum and mice and rats Wretched, filthy, dirty trash He set about his blessed task Once upon a twilight past.
On every road, all beaten paths He saw all towns, wrought to ash Blistering scars, one gaping gash Once upon a twilight past.
One night, among the untouched grass Where there were no men, and no more tracks He found there peace, felt no distress Once upon a twilight past.
In here, he thought, he would find rest. In here, he thought, he would do best. He would put others to the test Once upon a twilight past.
While here, he thought, there were no trysts Within, he declared, there were no fists In here, he said, they'd just exist. Once upon a twilight past.
They had, of course, all failed the test They ran, he saw, back towards the gash. And so he sat alone, no guests. Once upon a twilight past. Copyright 2008 Sean |
