Fierce Symmetry

22 Jan 2006

You are muscle and sinew
Fierce symmetry
The heat of the noonday
On a crowded street

You are order and reason
The spark and the steam
The chaos of nature
The storm on the sea

You are vapors and visions
The captain of dreams
The words and the kingdoms
The power between

Oh the shadowlands of freedom
Oh the deserts of desire
The loneliness of lovers
And the sight, the sight of the blind

You are muscle and sinew
Fierce symmetry
The cool of the morning
On the hill, on the tree
