Relativity

Renege your crown and open vast

These gates within a troubled past

Embrace anew the morning dew

That knows that naught in life it true

 

And that is why they hang so thin

A film upon the early din

To burn away with fiery light

All to return with waning night

 

To live and die and live once more

Perhaps upon a forest floor

a field, a hill, a lonely glen,

Forever born to die again

 

Forever forced to thrive and ebb,

A diamond for a spider's web.
