Pain, day, sky
Beauty, die, black, joy, love
Empty, day, life, die, pain, passion, joy, black, day, hate, beauty, die, life, joy, ache, empty, day, pain, die, love, passion, joy, black light

And if God is dead, what am I?
A fleck of dirt on the wing of a fly
Hurtling to earth
Through a hole in the sky

And if Warhol's a genius, what am I?
A speck of lint on the penis of an alien
Buried in gelatin
Beneath the sands of Venus

Time, sun, hurt, trust, peace, dark, rage
Sad, white, rain, sun, anger, hurt, soft,
Trust, night, rage, rain, white, hope, dark,
Sacred, sun, time, trust, hurt, rage, anger, rain, white light

And if a bird can speak 
Who once was a dinosaur
And a dog can dream
Should it be implausible?
That a man might supervise
The construction of light

Pain, day, sky, beauty, black, die, joy, 
Love, empty, time, sun, hurt, trust, peace, dark, rage, sad, white, rain, hate,
Anger, hope, sacred, passion, life, night,
Ache, soft light
