I died and lay within the dust,
Ages passed as ages must,
When eons ceased I woke anew,
And brought my visions back to you.
I told you of the endless rains,
Across the endless barren plains,
Once long ago the earth was new,
Its ancient days I spoke to you.
Wide eyed in death I saw the sun,
Until I was the only one,
The world became another land,
I held its dust within my hand.
The circle of my timely death,
Breath upon my fetid breath,
Silent there transposed my fast,
The end of time had come at last.
I died again for moments then,
Dreamed of shadows and of men,
Ages come as ages do,
Yet every word I spoke is true.
Everything that man had done,
Into the finite dust was spun,
And on and on I repose in state,
Returning here my endless fate.
