Spectral dawn dazzling
Drink deep the mirage
False fantasy
Desiccated dreams
Bones bleached
Wander on
Pilgrimage to nothing
Fear god
Fear death
Fear love
Speak not, make no human connection
This vessel walks alone
Fear life
Fear truth
Fear the unknown
Consciousness floods the brain
In a universe ever-expanding
Spiral into madness
Traversing undulating sands
Impotent god
Infinity lies at your feet
Legacy lost
Fear the burden of creation
And I walk into the light...
But only shadows greet me there
Save me
Is it better to wander than create
When time will only lay to waste
The fruits of our labors?
Look upon my works, ye mighty and despair
Even gods return to dust, a memory forgotten
I see Ozymandias' petrified sneer
Are we all condemned
To wander here for eternity?
Master, answers I seek
Master, reveal yourself to me
I have walked the desert lands
The tree of knowledge I have sought
I drank from it's roots only to become lost
And perched at the edge of creation
Entire lifetimes passed
I found him and awaited his decree
Beneath the twisted mask, the master was me
