Bah Humbug Neither saint nor sinners are born Chance is the deity to scorn Winners and losers are all thrust Back to the earth where all is dust. In between lies nought but caprice Ambergris of the altarpiece. The answer lies in the star And the door is still ajar. We're partial of an ordinance Part and parcel of a sequence. Dance within a mercurial trance In the nuance of fickle chance. Unknown to unknown we are born A light for a moment then gone. Little chance for ambience, It's Silence to violence to silence. And whatever we believe of belief Eternity is the only relief. |

Unknown to unknown we are born A light for a moment then gone. Little chance for ambience, It's Silence to violence to silence. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~` how true.... Charisma |
