Voyage of the Garganey I

Empty immensity defied Matter splayed across the monochrome Acting in the guise of a boundless void And between them Traces of the unknown lifelines Every path of equal promise As children we would scream We wielded the weapon of ignorance Dark bottomless wells of mindless hope Filled through countless aeons of survival philosophy Bring back the sin See the stars All out of our hands Their silence burns Solar winds Pull on the alignment Thе sky will turn Life eternal In thе hands of so few At the cost of our dreams We are in the throes of expectancy And violent consternation Low is my light In this void All cells are silent Adroit As children we would scream We wielded the weapon of ignorance Slow is my flight Through this void The worlds I imagined Carry me home
