Island - Spirogyra

If you’re gonna be a mountain

Let me see you thrust your snows

In innocence through clouds of doubt

That try to keep your reason out

In these times of glaciated slaughter

If you’re gonna be a legend

Let it be a tale whose telling

Is a state of mind that’s dwelling

Far beneath the words that capture

To fill the heart alone with rapture

In these days of circles

If your gonna be an island

I will be a sailing ship

Who like a speck at total distance

Looms beyond your headland breakers

Till the oceans mighty plunder

Bids me seek the gentler shelter

Of your inland waters

Have you never seen beyond the moon?

Don’t you know that we will be there soon?

Have you no eyes to see

That you are only me and we are only

Travellers upon a sea of time

Trying very hard to make it rhyme
