The rain sets in

With the sharpest mind I travel into their traps
Just like you did and will do

Lies covered behind the walls of water
Every drop a thought of mine
Running down the junctions that build
This world - reincarnate
Take a look in the curved mirror

What do you see?

Come in here
Just behind the ceiling
Then down the shaft
Into the light
Through the darkness
To my stage

See the devil dance with gods
Plastic eyes bending towards
The velvet sky
Amid of all those field of flowers
Who look so sad; but why?

I stare with all my lustre
Want to give them all my fate
They weep; but why?

Of course they have to die…Not I?

Then I first seize those eyes
Lurking from
-within-
the darkness behind

Now I understand…
