“Trust in that veiled hand, which leads
None by the path that he would go;
And always be for change prepared,
For the world’s law is ebb and flow.
- “FROM THE ARABIC”

Let rivers flow
Flow red with hate
Flow red with vengeance

Red to dawn
Red to demise
Every beat [...]

You may try
And
You may test my words
You may gather the rivers
And
You may gather the oceans
You may disperse them upon the greatest of fires
Yet
The heart’s desires are not extinguished
Every other light may burn out
Though
Every other candle may burn out
The heart’s desires are not extinguished
