You stole the fire from the first storytellers and burned all that you feared Or so you'd hoped But smoldering coals Though ashen they seemed Kept lighted a path A means to a dream that somewhere in a future time There'd be an awakening of stronger minds and hearts won by truth Not by snake oil salespersons peddling falsehoods (they ask) Wouldn't I like a soul? A fill for this hole? (I reply) A spirit I've got and my mind is not for rent If you want this corpse you can take it This life is all and enough All beyond is shibboleth If any ghosts should haunt my grave let them be all of my own make No deus ex machina, no bright guiding light I will not "go gently into that good night" The fire next time is gonna put out the last This desert will be converted to glass A reflection of the past at the very least Remains to be seen
