Black Pilgrim
I drove my feet through a desert
Whose mirage fluttered like a host
Voracious for glory, greedy for danger
I roamed the horizons of al - Kulab
Watching time level mountains
In its search and its hunger for me
And I saw the sparrows swiftly approach
Bolder then the onrushing wolf
They spread in the tree of my youth
I heard the flock in my branches
And was caught on their beaks and claws!
Frank Herbert
Inside crystal mountain
Evil takes it's form...
There was a man so wise
He jumped into
A sandy place
And burnt out both his eyes!
And when he knew his eyes were gone
He offered no complaint
He summoned up a vision
And made himself a saint
Won't you join me on the perennial quest
Reaching into the dark, retrieving light
Search for answers on the perennial quest
Where dreams are followed, and time is a test
My soul is bisected
Threads of mind are torn
Will journey through darkness ever end?
Will I finish alone?
I'm an outcast to people
Who are breaking my bones
My body is full of cuts and scars
Thrown at with stones
I'm fed up with blood and flesh
But you won't see my tears
'Cause my eyes are sewn
You won't hear my screams
'Cause my mouth is erased
The world is turning away from me
But I'll be the first one to reject the decaying society
Whirls of thoughts spin in your head
What do you worship in your life
Better forget
Rain washes away
Mud and blood from my face
I don't remember what time really is
Living through nights and dying through days
Close your eyes, take my hand
You will see the clarity with your mental sight
Waves of hatred pierce in your mind
When you look through the prism of reality
Better be blind
I'm the last pilgrim on this perennial quest
In search of crystal mountain which delenda est
