Twilight Sunrise

Glowing paths to the left and the right

Middle is hidden in between the lights

Unseen voices beseech you to heed

You must choose which way to proceed

Will it be fire?

Will it be frost?

You made the bet

Can you take the loss?

No forethought or hindsight

The world you wanted is a fantasy

Sunrise at twilight

You see exactly what you want to see

Perform your rites and sacraments

Pray to gods who came and went

Mortal man can’t understand

Who shakes the hand that shook the hand

Will it be famine?

Will it be flood?

You’ve got the thirst

Who has the blood?

Without forethought or hindsight

The world you wanted is a fantasy

Sunrise at twilight

You see exactly what you want to see
