Who moved the black castle
|
Who moved the white queen
|
When Gimmel and Daleth where standing between?
|
Out of the evening growing a veil
|
|
Pining for the pine woods that ached for the sail
|
|
There's something forgotten I want you to know
|
The freckles of rain are telling me so
|
O it's the old forgotten question
|
What is that we are part of?
|
What is it that we are?
|
|
And an elephant madness has covered the sun
|
The judge and the juries they play for the fun
|
They've torn up the roses and washed all the soap
|
And the martyr who marries them dares not elope
|
O it's the never realised question
|
|
O long O long e're yet my eyes
|
Braved the gates enormous fire
|
And the body folded 'round me
|
And the person in me grew
|
|
The flower and its petal
|
The root and its grasp
|
The earth and its bigness
|
The breath and its gasp
|
The mind and its motion
|
The foot and its move
|
The life and its pattern
|
The heart and its love
|
O it's the half-remarkable question.
