O how free is the human soul! To roam
Unrestrained and unbound the chambers vast
Of the celestial sphere; to soar the dome
Of blue, beneath the Sun's own golden cast -
But in an earthly kingdom we must keep,
In this form that no recompense will yield -
What proof is, but the breath that surges deep
Of the wonders that within are sealed -
Yet each breath will but briefly within dwell,
Then released returns again - to remain
Thus chained in a binding bond onto this shell -
Where the key to unlock this locked domain?
In time the sought release will come - kind Death,
But swing thy scythe and free the shackled breath.

Lo in the east where the Glory light!

And Ikaros shooting to the blue of the sky

but then there `s yellow

A solar pallet

and the flying Dutchman
