Human Wheels |
This land today, shall draw its last breath |
And take into its ancient depths |
This frail reminder of its giant, dreaming self. |
While I, with human-hindered eyes |
Unequal to the sweeping curve of life, |
Stand on this single print of time. |
Human wheels spin round and round |
While the clock keeps the pace. |
Human wheels spin round and round |
Help the light to my face. |
That time, today, no triumph gains |
At this short success of age. |
This pale reflection of its brave and |
Blundering deed. |
For I, descend from this vault, |
Now dreams beyond my earthly fault |
Knowledge, sure, from the seed. |
Human wheels spin round and round |
While the clock keeps the pace. |
Human wheels spin round and round |
Help the light to my face. |
This land, today, my tears shall taste |
And take into its dark embrace. |
This love, who in my beating heart endures, |
Assured, by every sun that burns, |
The dust to which this flesh shall return. |
It is the ancient, dreaming dust of God. |
Human wheels spin round and round |
While the clock keeps the pace. |
Human wheels spin round and round |
Help the light to my face. |
Human wheels spin round and round |
While the clock keeps the pace. |
Human wheels spin round and round |
Help the light to my face. |
