Crow
Caw! Caw! Where do you go?
On your remote and foreboding flight?
Past a place where you’ll never know
Through the depths of silvery light..
Caw! Caw! Will you tell me, crow
Where all have you once been?
I have gone where the evenings are born and grow
Where the stars shimmer violet and green.
Caw! Caw! Can you tell me now
What is the reason for our being?
To find that you must first learn how
To exist without sound, smell or seeing.
Caw! Caw! How can I find
The one truth, the utmost question?
You must learn to be free from your own mind
And seek to live without perfection.
Caw! Caw! Where are you going?
On your final departing flight?
To a place where you alone shall know
Through the depths of this ethereal night...
