DISPVTATIO - CONCLUSIONS III:
FADE TO BLACK
(ENNEALOGY, PART SIX OF NINE)
Santa Fe, August 6th, 1997 - P#72
I.
Conclusions come and so comes sight That all the things in our might Are small and all from blood are born, Are fragile and are simply worn As masks and shapes all over all, But when they finally will fall, From life the bones the death reveal, So that deep down we are to feel That not a place on earth will stay And ev'rything will go away, And all the fire then will burn And nothing will be seen in turn And nothing like a proof will come. The doubts arise, and not just some, They doubt the light and pray to dark, They doubt the rescue in the ark And pray to fire, praise the sun, Forgetting that we all are son And daughter of creation then, But fire walks where it just can.
II.
So doubts arise and come to tell That neither heaven, earth and hell Are to exist in oldest link And do not want the world to think Of ifs and whens and all the ways That might exist when there just stays The will to see them though at all. But when divided by this wall, The fight of life is all that thrives And takes well care of all those lives That are supposed to serve them well, The other ones would go to hell, No hell of devils, not so far, A hell of men that see no star Nor light or sky or ways out there, The truth they know from neverwhere, They don't believe in life or thought, They don't believe what others taught. But those are not the dreams deep down, They are the ways that us were shown.
III.
The light and shadows fight this fight, They battle days and all the night, They adversaries themselves are But all from darkness they stay far But all the times annihilate And all the times so agitate And seem just easy to create, Not stupidly just to debate, But to just add another theme To life that else would empty seem. But for the dead and all expelled The end result is not so felt, Instead, through all the theory The logic does present no key But seems a cynic, bitter guide That on the fire is to ride And knows no right and sees no dark, The truth for them is just too stark, A word they no respect then spare And light and darkness not compare.
IV.
So out of mind seem all the guys That dare to take just no advise From those who worship zero thought And those whose all possess was bought By paying all the fools with death, The fools which said that no one hath A right to lie or right to kill, A right to rule the common will Through hate and war and slavery, Through blood and gas and nature's fee, Through genocide and homicide, By those which said they could decide Who had to live and who to die, When they would take an eye for eye Or even more, or even less, So that a man could never guess What human justice feels alike, By those who brutally would strike Against all mind and all the good, Against what they deny just would.
V.
Small moves to make, great risks to take Is all that sometimes is to wake The conscience in those who know But would deny this ever so, Deny of fear, deny of guilt, Deny because they never built The world that but supposed they seem, That to rebuild a sacred realm, Not tyranny, not short to stay, Where no one would so hard then pay And beg for life and cry of fear, Just where no man could selfish tear The world and past of us apart. This prospect seems not à la carte, There is no way but work indeed, There are no guides that us could lead Except the words of all the times, The words that see those tiny lines That make the truth and make the space And did create what now holds pace.
VI.
The fire burns deep down this all, This all which is to truth to call. That means the truth that knows no scheme, The truth that just for all would seem, A truth that knows no judge and hell, A truth that finally would tell Where lies the task and where the sense, Where is the field and where the fence, Who is the shepherd, who the stock, Who makes the water out of rock. This truth I feel and know inside, Want to believe but always hide The consequence in fear to seek, Too shy and too afraid and weak. The final words I cannot say, This final time I feel the way But could not tell nor think it here, Too less my words to be I fear. So now shalt be no looking back, And all reflections fade to black.
