There is one companion
Who travels with me
Wherever I go

He possesses more voices
More faces
Than droplets
In the oceans

He is rising
From obscurity
To dismantle his own oppression
To set free his voices
To reveal the truth
And lead the way

There is one companion
Who remains always with me
One who has drowned
Among the voices of others
Sunk deep in the muddy slurry of hierarchies
Slipped repeatedly
On the slopes of material acquisition
For too long

Yet somehow
His staff has been found
His boots have grown claws
To grip the ice of life
And with each step
The cold winds of emptiness
Flutter and wane
And the blue freeze of isolation
Yields to the warmth of the eternal sun

Child of sun
Father of insuperable unity
Emerge and celebrate
Your future
